A quantity of money, an Armani watch and an Armani bag were taken from the victim but have been subsequently recovered.
A 20-year-old from Nuneaton arrested on suspicion of robbery has been released with no further action (NFA).
An 18-year-old man from Nuneaton arrested on suspicion of robbery has been bailed until 2 August while enquiries continue.

"We are also keen to speak to people who saw the incident or any motorists who have dash cam footage. Any information, no matter how small, could be significant to our investigation.”
Enquiries are ongoing but anyone with information should call 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 quoting incident number 100 of 9 July.
