Police are appealing for witnesses in a robbery that saw a pair of knife-wielding males threaten a Getir delivery driver before stealing his moped in Bristol.

The incident happened in broad daylight in Cotswold Road, Bedminster, on Saturday, March 19.

At around 2pm, a delivery driver was travelling down the road on his moped before he was approached by two males riding a motorbike at the junction of Brendon Road.

One of the them got off the motorbike and threatened the moped rider with a knife.
