A man was heading to work along Dunclug Park pathway in Ballymena when two men approached him and tried to grab his backpack.
Police are appealing for witnesses following the report of a robbery which happened at 6.50am on Monday July 24.
Sergeant Johnston said a struggle ensued and the victim suffered a laceration to his upper left arm which required hospital treatment.
One of the suspects is described as being around 5ft, with black hair, and he was wearing a dark coloured jacket and dark coloured trousers.
The second man is described as having been wearing a green coat and dark trousers. Both are understood to have come from the direction of the Cushendall Road area before entering Dunclug Park pathway.
