Police are looking for three men after an Albion milkman was bashed and robbed while making on a delivery run in Sunbury on Christmas Eve.
Fawkner Embona Taskforce detectives say the 21-year-old man was returning to his van parked on McInnes Close when he was approached by three men at about 1.15am.
The trio, one armed with a metal pole, demanded cash from the driver, who handed over a small amount.
One of the men struck the victim in the ribs with the pole, before damaging the van.
Once realising the man had no further money to provide, the trio fled the scene.
The driver’s padded coat prevented any injuries.
The offenders all appear to be of Caucasian appearance, aged in their late teens or early 20s, and wearing black clothing.
