A 15-year-old boy was robbed by three men armed with flick knives this afternoon.

The victim was walking along Gills Hill Lane in Radlett at around 2.30pm when a red Citroen pulled up alongside them.

Three men got out of the car and threatened the boy with what are believed to be small flick knives.

They stole his bag which contained his iPhone before getting back into the Citroen and fleeing towards Watford Road.

Neither the victim or his friend were injured during the incident.

Anyone who saw what happened or has any information is asked to call 101 quoting crime reference number 41/34658/18.
