CHESHIRE Police are appealing for information after a man was ‘slashed in the face’ in a robbery in Birchwood.

An 18-year-old woman and a 20-year-old man were sat in a parked car on Partridge Close shortly after 11pm on Friday, November 17 when three men approached the white Renault Clio and attacked them.

The offenders demanded money and dragged the pair out of the car, with the man ‘slashed to the face’ during the incident.

While two of the attackers drove off in the car, a third ran off down an alleyway at the end of Partridge Close.
