Threat to throw boy from bridge

A boy was held over the side of a bridge in Milton Keynes by two men who threatened to drop him over the edge.

The 13-year-old was walking between Leadenhall and Eaglestone with friends who were pouring a drink over the bridge on to the road below.

Two men stopped their car, slapped the boy in the face and pushed his head over the edge of bridge which crosses the H7, threatening to throw him off.

The boy was pushed to the ground before the men drove off.

Anyone with information about the incident on Thursday is asked to contact police.
