POLICE are stepping up patrols on the borough’s streets, after a man tried to force two schoolboys into his car.

The two separate incidents, which police believe involved the same man, happened on Friday - just three weeks after two other attempted kidnaps, last time targeting young girls.

   Would the council please send the warning home via schools to all the kids & parents in the area. It should have been sent home when this was first publicised, before the Easter Break.

   That picture really does say it all. The boys had a very lucky escape and their parents must be incredibly relieved. I hope this man is caught before we get to a stage where children can no longer play out.
