A victim suffered cuts to his head and bruises to his chest after he was hit over head with a baseball bat during a robbery.

Nottinghamshire Police were called to a report the victim was robbed of his mobile phone, car keys and some groceries during the incident which happened in Galway Road, Arnold, shortly before 8.15pm on Monday, December 21.

The victim, aged in his 30s, suffered a cut to his head and bruising to his chest but did not require hospital treatment, police confirmed.
