Man threatened with knife in Littlehampton alleyway
The victim was approached by a man asking if he wanted drugs
A man was threatened with a knife in a Littlehampton alleyway last week.
At around 4.45pm last Tuesday (20th October), the victim was approached by a man in an alleyway near Heleyers Green and Culin Road.
The suspect asked the victim if they wanted drugs. When they declined, they were threatened with a kitchen knife and told not to return to the alleyway.
The victim was unharmed but returned home shaken by the incident before reporting to police.
Later that evening, a 23-year-old man was arrested by officers on suspicion of affray and possession of a Class B drug. He has been bailed subject to conditions while enquiries are ongoing.
Police are keen to speak with anyone who was in the area at the time and may have seen something that could assist with the investigation.
Anyone with information is asked to report online or call 101, quoting 47200181267.
