Officers investigating a report of robbery in Aldershot have charged a man from Farnborough. 

We were called on Monday 6 November last year to a report that a man in his 40s was assaulted on Andover Way. 

It was reported that the man was kicked, punched and lost his phone during the incident.

Officers carried out a number of enquiries and have now charged a man.

Jermaine Ruskie, 19, of Chaucer Road, Farnborough, has been charged with assaulting a person thereby occasioning them actual bodily harm, attempted robbery and possessing a bladed article in a public place.

He appeared at Basingstoke Magistrates Court today (Wednesday 3 April) and was remanded into custody.

Ruskie is next due to appear at Winchester Crown Court on Wednesday 1 May.
