A cyclist leaned through a driver's window and stole car keys from the ignition after "behaving aggressively" at traffic lights, police said.

The victim, in his 60s, was driving a green Fiat Punto along Bridge Street in Christchurch. He was reportedly hit by the cyclist in the face.

Dorset Police said the "road rage incident" happened at noon on Sunday.

A photo of the suspect has been released. He is described as a white man in his 30s and of slim build.

He was wearing black fitted cycling gear with a wide blue horizontal band across his lower back and cycling glasses.

Police said he was cycling alongside a man wearing black cycling gear with yellow markings on it, who was not involved in the incident.
