Three people - including a fifteen-year-old boy - were arrested by police after an elderly woman was robbed of £300 as she withdrew the money from an ATM in Hastings.

Police said they were called shortly after 12 midnight on Tuesday (June 23) to a report of a 75-year-old woman being robbed.

A 22-year-old man, a 19-year-old man and a 15-year-old boy were arrested on suspicion of robbery at a property in St Leonards and remain in custody for questioning.

Detective Sergeant Paul Elrick said:
