A TWENTY-three-year-old man remains in custody following arrests in connection with a machete and taser attack in the district.

West Yorkshire Police said they had arrested three men earlier today in response to an investigation into a car theft in St Matthew's Grove, Wilsden, last Thursday.

The incident occurred at around 9.10pm after a 47-year-old victim parked his white VW Golf R car outside his house.

Police say he had been followed home and was attacked by four men wearing dark clothing and said to be wielding machetes and weapons, who then demanded his car.

The victim threw the gang his car keys. One of the gang members then tasered the man and they made their getaway in the car and a silver Vauxhall Vectra.

The victim was uninjured in the robbery.

Two of the men arrested today aged 25 and 28 were released without charge.

The investigation into the armed robbery continues.
