Officers are appealing for witnesses to come forward after a woman was robbed of her mobile phone in Poole.
At 1.15pm on Tuesday 12 February 2019 the 25-year-old victim was walking along Archway Road in the Penn Hill area holding her mobile phone and with headphones over her head when she was grabbed by an unknown woman.
