Police are hunting two men who have approached a number of teenage girls in Dundee.
They drive a silver ford focus, two young teens were seen in the back of the car on one occasion.
Officers received reports, some late at night, between a 16 and a half hour period around two weeks ago.
Between 11.30am on Monday, 22 March and 4pm on Tuesday, 23 March, 2021, two men were reported to have approached a number of teenage girls at various locations in Dundee, including Glamis Road, Dunholm Road and Craigowan Road.
The car had the registration prefix LX52.
Different descriptions have been given for the men, however, officers believe the same car and people have approached the girls in at least three incidents which are being treated as linked. The men are thought to be aged in their late teens to early twenties.
The men, who do not make physical contact with the girls, engage them in conversation, and on at least one occasion, two young teenage girls were seen in the back of the car.
Constable Adele Mitchell, Lochee Police Station, said: "Whilst the girls were not physically harmed, they, or their parents, were concerned enough to contact police about the behaviour of these men.
"The girls they spoke to were not known to them, and we’re eager to understand what happened.
“Since these concerns were raised to police we have been carrying out enquiries in the area and are checking available CCTV. We know there have been some comments on social media about these incidents but we’re keen that information is shared with us so we can investigate these concerns thoroughly.
"If you have any information that may assist officers with their enquiries, then please contact Police Scotland via 101 quoting reference number 2109 of 22 March.”
