A man attempted to rob a woman in Rope Walk, Ipswich in a daylight attack.
The woman was walking towards Suffolk New College when she was approached by a man who pulled her handbag and demanded money at approximately 11am on Monday, May 24.
The woman refused and the man walked away.
The victim was not harmed but was shaken as a result.
Any witnesses to this incident, or anyone with any information can contact Ipswich CID quoting reference 27356/21 on 101, by email or via their website.
Solicitors acting for Ms Nicholls said that Smith should have been recalled to prison before Mr Pooley was murdered.

Ms Nicholls said: While nothing can bring my son back, at the very least, his killers have finally faced justice for the crime they committed. Joe was a vulnerable young man who should have been afforded all the support the state could muster, but it is clear that this did not happen. To get to the bottom of what happened in the lead up to my son s murder, I believe an inquest must be held to identify if and where failings occurred.
