The suspect then went back to the waiting taxi which drove along Pleasant Street and turned right onto Heythesbury Street towards Kevin Street.
The suspect is described as being between 5’8’’ and 5’9’’ in height wearing light blue jeans, a blue jacket with the hood up on his head and white runners. He was carrying a small dark coloured bag. He was in his late 20’s.
