Violent robber jailed after knocking pensioner unconscious
A violent robber who knocked a pensioner unconscious has been jailed for more than five years after being found in the Black Country.
Kenny Field, of Crambourne Close, Rubery, punched the 72-year-old man in the head more than 20 times in the unprovoked 6am attack on Redhill Road, West Heath. The pensioner was left with a fractured eye socket.
It came after Field had already smashed another resident’s house window in nearby Forrell Grove, West Heath, Birmingham, the same morning.
The 31-year-old fled with only a torch following the robbery on January 19 and he was identified as the prime suspect following a trawl of CCTV.
