Police have released CCTV images after multiple victims were robbed on the Lewisham DLR by machete wielding men posing as weed dealers.
Four separate victims were approached by two or three men between Lewisham and Elverson Road on the afternoon of September 1, who asked them if they smoked cannabis.
The men then threatened them with a machete, demanding their phones and headphones before leaving at the next station.
On one other occasion, a victim had their phone snatched by the same men.
Officers believe the men in the CCTV images may have information which could assist their investigation.
