15 Year Old Girl Approached By Suspicious Strangers In Car – Gretna

Police in Gretna are carrying out enquires after a 15 year old girl was spoken to by two people in a dark coloured car on Africanda Road in the town.

Between 9.45pm and 10.08pm on Friday 11th August, the teenage girl was walking along Africanda Road near to its junction with Annan Road, Gretna. At this time a dark coloured car stopped in front of her. The car is believed to have contained two persons and the occupants allegedly told the girl to get in the car. The occupants of the car were unknown to the girl and she ran off, quickly reporting the incident to her parents.

Police Constable Michael Anderson said, “We are keen to identify the vehicle involved, speak to the occupants and establish why they spoke to this teenage girl. We believe the vehicle was driven by a male and a female was front seat passenger. We have been carrying out door to door enquires and checking CCTV in the area however if anyone believes they may know the identity of the occupants I would ask they contact Police at Gretna on the 101 number”.
