Three men have been arrested after a knife-point robbery in Swindon.

Wiltshire Police said a man in his 20s was walking along Burbage Road when he was approached from behind by two males on electric bikes on Saturday.

One of the men pulled out a knife, the force said, and made demands for him to hand money over.

The men - aged 18, 21 and 23 - were arrested on suspicion of robbery and have been released on bail while enquiries continue.

Officers are appealing for a woman to come forward who walked around the corner at the time of the incident, at about 13:15 BST, wearing a pink top.
