The man has been seen at the same spot on several days approaching cars stopped at the traffic lights.

Richmond Police said: "A male was arrested around 1500hrs on Sunday, November 20, following a call to police about a man walking down the A316 approaching cars asking for money.

"The same male had been seen on a number of occasions at rush hour approaching for money at the same location.

"As a member of the public approached the male to take a photo to send to police, the male has threatened to stab him.

"He was subsequently arrested for a S4 POA (public order) offence and was taken to a local police station."
