The robbers punched their victim and stamped on his head during the attack, which happened on St Peter’s Street just after 4pm on New Year’s Eve.

They stole a white iPhone 4, a baseball hat and a small amount of money.

Their victim was taken to hospital for treatment after suffering concussion and facial injuries.
