Twelve-year-old girl accosted in Rochford

A TWELVE-YEAR-OLD girl was accosted by a stranger in the street who made an indecent comment.

Police believe the same man may have been watching children in the Rochford area over the last few days.

It was reported that the girl had been in Leecon Way at about 5pm on Monday when a man made a lewd suggestion. She walked away.

The man was described as white, aged between 20 and 30, and bald. He was wearing white top and blue shorts with white stripes down the sides.

Officers are investigating possible links between the incident and reports of a man also wearing a white top and dark shorts seen watching children in the Golden Cross Parade area of Rochford shortly before 6.30pm on Saturday.

Any witnesses or anyone with information about either incident should call officers at Rayleigh police station on 101.

This happened to my daughter, when she was 12, she is 23 now. And when i reported it to the police it took them 3 days to respond and when they did they located the man based on my daughters description and the man admitted saying to my daughter "sit on my fingers whilst you have wet dreams" but they accepted his excuse that he "was only joking" funny that, coz in my experience a joke makes people laugh and i wasnt laughing. but as he was only joking that was alright then.
