Police have published an efit of a suspect in a Bognor knifepoint robbery.

Shortly after 22:00 BST on Saturday 14 April, a 19-year-old man was in Steyne Street, Bognor, when he was approached by two men, one of whom threatened him with a knife.

He was not hurt but they stole his mobile phone and house keys.

The man with the knife was described as slim, in his early twenties, with a trimmed full beard, black hair that was grown out on top and pushed forward with no hair products in.

He was wearing a grey zip up hoodie with a black top underneath, grey tracksuit bottoms and had a silver chain around his neck.

The other suspect was bigger in build than the first man, in his mid-twenties, wearing a blue baseball cap that had a grey tick on it, a white scarf covering his face from below his eyes and grey tracksuit bottoms.

These hoaxers were bold, dedicated, and didn't wait for 1 April.

After more than five hours of discussion in public, plus more deliberation behind closed doors, Brighton and Hove’s licensing panel is still to reach a decision on whether to renew Uber’s licence.

The taxi booking app has been used more than a million times in the city since it launched with a Brighton licence in 2016 – but has drawn criticism from some in the local taxi trade.

During Monday’s meeting, they complained Uber drivers were sleeping in their vehicles, coming from out of the area to pick up work, and hadn’t done enough for disabled passengers.

Uber admitted it had no wheelchair accessible vehicles (local rules say it doesn’t need any until it operates 100 vehicles in Brighton), but said its drivers were getting training to help disabled people.

It said it hadn’t broken any rules, and was doing more than required to work with the council – blocking drivers from London picking up work on the coast, for example.

Following the discussion, three councillors on the licensing panel said they needed longer to consider the matter before reaching a decision.

They’ve promised to tell us what they decide “as soon as possible” following a further, private, meeting later this week.

Police are given an extra five days to question a man arrested on suspicion on terrorism offences.
