Police have launched an investigation after a young child was approached by a man in Carnoustie on her school lunchbreak.
The man tried to engage the eight-year-old girl in conversation as she walked along Ravensby Road between 1.15 and 1.30pm on Monday.
He is described as a white male, aged early 30s, tall, medium build, with short dark spiky-ish hair. He was wearing blue denim jeans, a large black jacket with a hood (which was down) and black footwear.
A police spokesperson said last night: “It should be noted that whilst the matter may be innocuous, officers are treating this seriously and are keen to speak to anyone who may have seen someone in the vicinity who matches the man’s description.”
Anyone who may have information is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101.
