No suspects identified after attempted robbery

Police have confirmed they haven't yet identified any suspects after an attempted robbery in Douglas. 

 

Officers say enquiries are continuing after someone tried to steal a woman's bag as she was walking along Peel Road near Pulrose Bridge. 

 

It happened at around 5am on February 22nd - they say due to the time of day there doesn't seem to be anyone else who saw what happened or anyone acting suspiciously in the area.

 

However they say they're "happy to advise" that since that date there has been no other similar incidents reported.

 

In addition officers are continuing regular patrols in the area in the hours of darkness.
