A teenager has been threatened with a knife in Windsor by a gang.

Police are appealing for witnesses following the attempted assault on Friday, April 4, on a 16-year-old boy in Alexandra Gardens.

At about 1.45am the victim was walking in the direction of the railway station when he was approached by a group of six black men.

One revealed a knife and attempted to assault him, but the boy managed to run away and was not injured.

The man with the knife is black, 18-years-old and has a shaved head. He was wearing dark clothing. A second member of the group is aged about 20, with a scar of his face. He has afro hair and was wearing a black tracksuit and trainers. 

Anyone who witnessed the incident, or has information which may assist police with their enquiries, is urged to call police on 0845 8 505 505, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
