KNIFE-wielding thugs threatened a stranger with a knife before robbing him in the street.
The 30-year-old was walking on Crow Road, near Broomhill Road, in Glasgow’s West End, when he was approached by two men in the early hours of yesterday morning.
They threatened him with a knife and demanded his money and property before running off towards Broomhill Drive.
Police say the victim was uninjured but has been left “badly shaken” following the incident at 5.45am.
Both suspects are white, around 5 ft. 11 inches in height and are in their mid-twenties. One had blond hair and was wearing a green hooded top and dark-coloured trousers. The other had short brown hair, with a blue/red hooded top and dark-coloured trousers.

Detectives say they are gathering a number of CCTV images for review for more information on the suspects.
Detective Constable Joe Keith said: “I’m confident we will be able to identify these two men, however, I would still like to ask the public for their help.
“If you were in that area yesterday morning, please think back, did you see anything, did you see the two men run off. Any small piece of information could assist us, so please do pass it on.”
Anyone with information is asked to call Police Scotland on 101, quoting 0395 of October 7, 2021.
