Striker Vassell robbed by muggers

Manchester City striker Darius Vassell was robbed as he returned home from the club's Christmas party.

The 28-year-old had his designer watch and jewellery stolen by two men as he got out of a taxi in Didsbury in the early hours of Sunday.

It is understood the attackers had not specifically targeted the former England international, but struck while he reportedly disputed his taxi fare.

The raid took place at the junction of Palatine Road and Barlow Moor Road.

A Greater Manchester Police spokesperson said: "Police were called following reports of the robbery.

"On arrival they found a 28-year-old man whose watch and jewellery had been stolen.

"He had not been injured during the incident but the offenders had threatened him.

"Inquiries are ongoing."

A former Aston Villa player, Vassell has been at Manchester City since 2005.

Bitchin about a £20 fare and prolly got jacked for several grand. Go figure.
