He was approached by a male who briefly spoke to him and then stole a bag containing money from his scooter. The male made his way towards the multi story car park next to Tesco in Craswell Street Portsmouth. The thief stole the money at around 11am on Friday.

It was when the pensioner was going home after earlier taking the cash money to the bank in Portsmouth, then wrongly thinking the large noted money was being recalled, that he was robbed.
