At about 2.15 pm on Tuesday, 28th April, 2015, the victim was at the Dennis Morrisey Park, on the corner of Montacute Road and St Bernards Road, Hectorville, near the creek bed at the western end of the park, when he felt a sudden thud on his left shoulder.  The victim saw a male on a dirty olive grey BMX bike holding his backpack, which contained his laptop, camera and three camera lenses.

There was a second male (facial image shown) who was holding a large black pole, approximately 40 cm in length and about 4 cm in width, in his hand.  This male raised the pole and pointed it at the victim’s throat and threatened the victim.  The male demanded the victim hand over his watch and wallet or he would “smash his head”, which the victim did.
