A man was walking his dog on a park close to the Quarry Hill industrial estate in Ilkeston, and had just come through a jitty from Hexham Avenue, when he saw two men wearing dark tracksuits.
As he came level with the men, one of them punched him in the face and he fell to the ground, losing consciousness for a short time. When he came round, he realised his high-value gold chain necklace had been stolen.
