Masked men jump from car, smash window of van and steal bag from passenger

Masked men jumped from a car and smashed the window of another vehicle while at a busy Swansea city centre junction in the middle of the day - then snatched a bag from the passenger.

The two masked men got out of a black vehicle and smashed the window of a white van at Dyfatty lights at the bottom of Carmarthen Road in Swansea, at around 11.20am yesterday.

They also removed the keys to their victim’s vehicle, so they wouldn't be able to pursue them.
