It is a weekend night though isn't it. Their resources will be stretched to the limit having to police town. They may call tomorrow, I told the WPC on the phone that the kids would only be up til 10pm to speak to them.

Also, how many calls will the receive in a day reporting similar incidents.

Fair comment tinks you cant keep the kids up too late but they could and should have resouces spare to deal with such incidents promptly despite how many calls they get, maybe tomorrow will be too late for some poor begger .. but lets just pray that its not.

True point i hope that it is reported if thats the case then they would have to look into it these monsters of prey need to be caught asap

Thanks for the warning Tinks. The police need to take this seriously because I can't think of one good reason why two men should be cruising around and asking young girls to get into the car.

Tinkerbelle · 16-12-2006, 23:59

Totally agree with you both but realistically 2 guys in a car .... needle in a haystack. They may have sent a patrol car up to have a look round the area, the description from the kids and girls mum were excellent.

I hope nothing happens too cherokee, it doesn't bare thinking about

Got to clarify Willow, they weren't telling her to get in the car ..... they were saying "Come here" and beckoning her to the car.

WillowTheWhisp · 17-12-2006, 00:09

Oh, OK I suppose there could be a logical explanation then. They could have been wanting to ask directions or something, but on the other hand it could have been sinister.

sorry dont buy that its most unlikely, i stop many times to ask directions,but not from kids.

Tinkerbelle · 17-12-2006, 00:18

No there is no logic. They followed my younger daughter and her friends earlier in the evening. It's a long story how it all pieced together ..... I'll try a quick version that hopefully makes sense. My younger daughter had gone to a friends house on the lower estate with the daughter of the mum who my elder daughter was with. The mum of my younger daughters friend wanted her daughter home but didn't know the address of the friends house so my older daughter said she'd show her. My older daughter was lagging behind the mum as she'd had to get her shoes and jacket on. She was stopped by the 2 guys who tried to get her to go to their car telling her to "come here". The mum saw and heard what was going on and told them to 'go away'. They thought nothing of it until they arrived at the friends house and was given the details by the friends mum about the guys watching them. It was the same blokes.

Does that make sense

Doug · 17-12-2006, 00:21

Yes, it does, and all to frigtening if their prepared to hang around the same area.....

garinda · 17-12-2006, 00:24

Glad they are safe, and that you reported it, both to the police and here.

Sounds very dodgy and suspicious. In cases like this everyone should try and get a registration number. Not many people carry about a pad and paper, but you can always use text on your mobile, which nearly everyone has on them.

Tinkerbelle · 17-12-2006, 00:24

If they're back in the area any time soon they've been told to get the reg of the car by any means necessary

accymel · 17-12-2006, 00:24

Yep tinks makes sence

Has these other mums reported it also it up the concern & back your call too so that way it raises the cops concern??

Tinkerbelle · 17-12-2006, 00:29

Yeah, she said she was Mel.
