A man assaulted two teenage boys before taking a mobile phone, police said.
Gloucestershire Police released a CCTV image of a man who they would like to speak to in connection with a robbery in Gloucester.
The incident happened at about 17:50 GMT on 14 December when three teenage boys were walking through the multi-storey car park at Asda in Bruton Way.
An argument took place between two of the boys and an unknown man before the man chased them both to Napier Street.
He then punched one of the boys, before throwing both the boys to the floor and demanding that they hand over a mobile phone.
It is believed that the man had parked a black Vauxhall Corsa with a red stripe in the car park and he returned to his vehicle with the phone following the assault.
One of the boys, aged 13, was later treated at Gloucestershire Royal Hospital for concussion and bruising.
Anyone who recognises the man or who has information about the incident is asked to contact Gloucestershire Constabulary.
