Robbery charges

-

THREE suspects have been charged with robbery in connection with a mugging in Runcorn.

Callum Quirk, 18, of Barracks Road, Wigan, Kelly Randles, 28, of The Knoll, Palacefiel­ds, Runcorn, and Adam Watson, 21, also of The Knoll, were due to appear at North Cheshire Magistrate­s’ Court last Wednesday, April 12, as the Weekly News was going to press.

They were charged following an investigat­ion into an incident on Saturday, October 30, last year, in which offenders were alleged to have pushed a man in his 70s to the ground and taken his wallet in woods near Charlton Close.

The matter prompted an appeal from the police at the time.

North Cheshire Magistrate­s’ Court was not available to provide details of the outcome of Wednesday’s hearing.
