Two arrested in Bilston after pursuit following knifepoint robbery in Staffordshire
Two people were arrested after being pursued by road crime police officers following a knifepoint robbery in Staffordshire.
The robbery happened at about 7.30pm on Saturday when the victim, a man, arranged to meet two other men in Kidsgrove who were looking to buy Rolex watches from him.
One of the men pulled out a knife and took the watches without paying for them and they left the scene after getting into a car and driving off.
The car was followed after getting off the M6 southbound onto the Black Country Route in Bilston and it was eventually stopped by road crime team officers from Staffordshire Police.
All five of the Rolex watches were found in the car, as well as a knife, which have all been seized.
A 20-year-old man, from Worcestershire, and a 17-year-old boy, from Wolverhampton, have been arrested on suspicion of robbery.
They were both questioned and bailed with conditions while the investigation continues.
