As part of inquiries, officers want to trace two men who were last seen heading in the direction of Ashley Road on a dark motorbike.
DC Heather Gettings, who is leading the investigation, said: “The suspects were thankfully unsuccessful in their attempt however it would have still been an extremely unnerving incident for the delivery driver involved.
“Crimes of this nature are extremely rare, especially in this particular area, however I would urge all motorists to never leave your vehicle unattended to not give opportunistic thieves a chance.
“Inquiries are ongoing and I would urge anyone with information to contact Police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111 if you would prefer to remain completely anonymous.”
