Police say the man was out walking at the time of the 'terrifying attack'
A man was allegedly stabbed in the arm with a suspected knife as he was on the ground during an armed robbery on Tuesday.
Police say the victim, aged in his 30s, had been walking in the Dunclug Park area of Ballymena at around 7am this morning when three men assaulted him. He was kicked and punched by the men to his face and body. PSNI Sergeant Crothers said: "The suspects made off with a mobile phone, a sum of cash and also a number of cards belonging to the victim."Our investigation is now underway to establish what happened, who was involved and a motive. This was a terrifying attack and the man required hospital treatment for his injuries.
"The three suspects are believed to be aged in their 20s - one of the men had a beard and another was wearing a khaki-coloured coat. We are appealing to anyone who was in the area at the time and has any information, or who saw the suspects matching these descriptions, to call detectives on 101, quoting reference number 305 of 10/01/23.
