War veteran, 83, pinned to his car and robbed in Tesco car park by thugs as shoppers watched and did nothing

An elderly war veteran today accused shoppers of ignoring his cries for help as he was pinned to his car and robbed in a busy supermarket car park in broad daylight. Michael Saxby, 83, said he was screaming for assistance as a man and woman trapped him against his car outside his local Tesco and then made away with his modest life savings. Nobody ran to aid the frail pensioner - who can only walk with crutches - even though the attack happened just 20 yards from the supermarket entrance at 11.30am on a busy Friday morning. Mr Saxby, of Cottenham, Cambridgeshire, believes the thieves filmed him on a mobile phone as he entered his PIN at the supermarket checkout. They later mugged him for his wallet and emptied his account of the £700 he relies on to tide him over with his pension payments.
