Police hunt two 'ugly' muggers
POLICE are on the hunt for two "ugly" thieves who mugged a man for £3.50.
The pair threatened their 21-year-old victim with a knife as he travelled on a bus in Irvine, Ayrshire.
Their victim told police one thug was covered in acne and had "one nostril bigger than the other". The other, thought to be called Greg, had scars above and below his right eye.
The attack took place at around 8pm on 19 December on a No.11 bus. The victim was on his way to visit his girlfriend when the two men approached and demanded money for a "bottle of wine".
