A GANG of teenage robbers attacked a man in a Normanton alleyway.
The 33-year-old victim was walking home from a night out with his wife.
She had gone ahead to their home and the man was carrying her handbag.
As he walked down the alleyway between King Street and Cambridge Street he was confronted by gang of youths.
They then carried out the unprovoked attack by kicking and punching him.
One of the gang then grabbed his wife’s handbag before they all ran off.
The attack happened at about 12.15am on Saturday, June 20.
Detectives are now hunting members of the gang who were all aged between 14 and 16.
Anyone with any information should contact Wakefield CID on 01924 2895602 or Crimestoppers, in confidence, on 0800 555111 and callers could receive a cash reward.
