Two men wanted for questioning by police have been caught on CCTV after a woman was robbed of her engagement ring in broad daylight.

The 42-year-old mother was crossing the road to Caldervale Road in Clapham on July 10 with her two young children, a friend's child and the family dog when she was approached by two men from behind.

One of the men grabbed her arm and forced her watch from her wrist.

They then stole an engagement ring after forcing it from her finger.

The suspects fled the scene by running in the direction of Cavendish Road.

The pair are both described as black males, about 6ft tall, aged 25 to 30 years. They each wore black/dark clothing with their hoods up.

Police have released CCTV footage of two men they would like to speak to in connection with the incident.

The CCTV shows two men walking along Abbeville Road shortly before the incident, and then running back along the road moments later.

DC Sam Smith from Lambeth CID, said: "This was a terrifying ordeal for the victim who not only feared for her own safety but also the safety of the young children with her.

"The suspects targeted the victim in broad daylight and used force even when the victim willingly offered to hand over the watch.

"We are committed to catching those responsible for this heinous crime and I'd urge anyone who recognises the men in the CCTV to contact us as a matter of urgency. I'd also appeal to any

witnesses who have not yet spoken to us to do so. Any information, not matter how small or insignificant you think it is, will assist us in bringing these criminals to justice."

Anyone who has information relating to this incident should call Lambeth CID on 07785 774 447 or 101 quoting reference 5797/10JUL.
