A delivery driver has been robbed of his van thought to have been filled with Christmas parcels in Milton Keynes, police said.
At about 15:00 yesterday, the driver was hit on the head by a man while delivering £2,000-worth of packages on Clifford Avenue, Bletchley.
The offender, who was described as black, then got into the white Mercedes van - registration WR56 BKL - and drove off.
The delivery driver, a man in his 40s, was taken to Milton Keynes Hospital for treatment and later discharged.
Det Con Kim McHugh said: "This robbery happened in the middle of the afternoon just as the driver was delivering parcels, presumably, considering the time of year, many were destined as Christmas presents."
The officer appealed for witnesses to come forward.
