DETECTIVES today stepped up their hunt for three men who robbed a teenager at knifepoint as he walked to a bus station.
Photo e-fits of three attackers have been released following the robbery on the 17-year-old from Stanford-le-Hope, which took place at Market Pavement, Basildon.
The 17-year-old boy had just finished work in the town centre, when the three men approached him and one of them held a knife to his throat, forcing him to hand over his walkman.
The three men are all described as mixed race and in their early 20s.
The teenager was left shaken up by the ordeal, just before 8pm on Tuesday October 19.
