Police have released CCTV images after a man was reportedly threatened with a knife in Bournemouth earlier this year.
The incident happened at around 3.20pm on Friday 9 January 2026 in the area of Bath Road, where a man was approached and threatened by another man believed to be carrying what appeared to be a Stanley knife.
