POLICE need to trace a group of five men after an 11-year-old girl was followed in Lowestoft.
Witnesses are also being sought to the incident in Love Road about 3.45pm yesterday (Monday, September 27).
The 11-year-old girl was walking along the road when she noticed the group and one of the men – described as white, in his 20s to early 30s, wearing a white baseball cap and a grey hooded top, with the hood pulled over the cap – called out to her.
He then followed her, and as she quickened her pace he did as well. The girl then went into an alleyway and the man ran past. The 11-year-old returned home and reported the incident.
Police need to trace the man involved and are asking anyone who may have been in the Love Road area around this time yesterday to come forward.
Officers would also likely to hear from anyone who may have seen a girl or a man matching this description running in the area. Anyone with information should telephone PC 1698 Stimpson at Lowestoft police station on 01986 835300.
