Local Inspector Steve Templeton said: "This is very similar to an incident in Tewkesbury that happened on Monday.  Officers are investigating any possible links between these two incidents and are increasing patrols in both areas.

"I understand parents will be concerned but it is important to remember no one has been harmed during any of these incidents.  It would be sensible to remind your children of the stranger danger messages, all of which can be found on our website."
