A man has been charged with attempted robbery after a delivery man was threatened with a knife.

Warren James-Harding, 43, of Marian Way in London was charged after an incident earlier this week.

A man in his 30s was delivering parcels in Viburnum Green when he was approached by a male threatening to have a knife, who demanded he hand over the parcel.

No knife was seen, and both the victim and the suspect left the scene of the incident with nobody hurt.

After a police investigation, a male was arrested at the BP services in the A14 in Newmarket on the same day.

He was taken into custody and questioned.

James-Harding has been remanded to appear before Ipswich Magistrates Court this morning.
