Girl, 19, told to get into van by a stranger who approached her at country park in Northamptonshire
Fortunately, the 19-year-old’s father arrived just in time so she could walk away
Northamptonshire Police are still looking for witnesses to come forward about an incident that took place in Sywell Country Park on Thursday November 5 between 1.30pm and 2pm.
A 19-year-old woman sat on a bench in the top car park at Sywell Country Park after walking her dog when a dark van stopped next to her.
One man got out of the van, approached the woman and asked her for her name. He then told her to get into the van but, fortunately, the woman’s father drove into the car park to pick her up and she was able to walk away.
The man is described as an Asian or Middle Eastern man in his early 20s, six foot and of a stocky build with black hair and a distinctive scar that runs from his hairline on the right side of his head and down to the bridge of his nose.
He was wearing a black North Face puffer-style jacket, a dark coloured top, grey trousers and dark coloured slip on shoes.
The driver of the van is described as an Asian/Middle Eastern man in his 20s, of a slim build and wearing a red baseball cap.
Police have released an e-fit of a man they would like to speak to in connection with this incident.
