Police are appealing for witnesses after a teenager and young woman were robbed at knifepoint in a Palmers Green park.
The suspect pulled a large kitchen knife from his waist band after asking a 15-year-old boy for the time at approximately 8am on June 21 in Broomfield Park, before demanding he hand over his Blackberry mobile phone.
Four hours later he used the same tactics to rob a 23-year-old woman of her iPhone, before running off along Powys Lane.
Police describe the suspect as an Asian man between 20-25 years old, wearing a white hoodie and black hat.
