A pregnant woman was robbed by three men in Wilsden Avenue on Tuesday.
The woman was walking in an alley behind housing at about 7pm when three men grabbed her clothing, causing her to fall to the ground.
They kicked her and took a small amount of cash before running from the scene in an unknown direction.
All the offenders are described as white men, between 18 and 25 years old.
Det Con Richard Cunningham said: “Clearly the victim was extremely upset by the incident as she is seven months pregnant and was subjected to several violent kicks to her body during the ordeal. Luckily she is now recovering at home but this experience could have caused complications for her and her unborn child.”
Anyone with information relating to this crime can contact DC Cunningham, in confidence, at Luton Police Station, on 01582 394373, or Bedfordshire Police on 101, or text information to 07786 200011.
