TWO teenage robbers launched a vicious attack after dragging two men out of a car.

Connor Malbon and Mackenzie Trevett were both under 18 when they carried out the terrifying robbery.

Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court heard the pair - and a third assailant who hasn't been identified - lured the victims to the confrontation in Meir in the early hours of February 23, 2023.

The unknown assailant took the keys from a Vauxhall Corsa via the open window, while Malbon and Trevett went to the passenger side where they dragged one of the victims from the car. Trevett then held a serrated knife to his face before the pair beat him, stripped him of clothing and took his wallet and vape.

The second victim in the driver's seat was then also dragged from the vehicle, his Berghaus coat and Nike trainers were taken, along with his mobile phone and wallet. One of the victims tried to escape but fell when he collided with a parked car and was beaten up for a second time.
