A serviceman who was threatened with a knife near an RAF base was the victim of an attempted abduction, police said.

Officers said he was approached by two men as he was out jogging near RAF Marham in Norfolk on Wednesday.

He was threatened with a knife and attempts were made to grab him but the victim, who was not in uniform, fought them off and escaped unharmed.

Norfolk Police said it was "unable to discount terrorism" as a motive.

Police have issued descriptions of the two suspects involved.

One is described as between 20 and 30 years old, approximately 6ft (1.81m) tall, of athletic but stocky build, with dark hair, long on top, and a well-groomed beard. He was of Middle Eastern appearance with dark skin and wore dark casual clothing.

The other is said to be around the same age but younger than the first suspect and of a slimmer build, 5ft 10ins (1.78m) tall, and clean shaven with short dark hair. He was also of Middle Eastern appearance and wore a white t-shirt and dark shorts.

Well that's terrifying.

Yeah. I am glad he managed to fight them off.

Update:

Two people involved in the attempted knifepoint abduction of an RAF serviceman are likely to have been part of a bigger team, police said.

The married serviceman, who is in his late 20s, was out running near RAF Marham, in Norfolk, on Wednesday when he was grabbed by a man who tried to drag him towards a nearby car.

Looking more and more like a attempt to do a attack like Lee Rigby.
