Police urge safety after Tauranga girls approached by men

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Police have issued safety tips to Otumoetai Intermediate students after a man behaved suspiciously towards a 12-year-old girl crossing the Matua saltmarsh earlier this week.

A police report said the female student was asked by a man to help him find something he had lost in the bushes. Community Constable Paul Wrigley said in the report that it was a very suspicious request. For more information read the Bay of Plenty Times story here.

Safety tips issued by Tauranga Police to combat stranger danger
- Walk with a dog or another person.
- If walking by yourself, choose busy times of the day.
- Avoid walking in dusk or when lighting was poor.
- Pause playing music in vulnerable areas to hear people walking up behind.
- If anyone has any concerns they are encouraged to call police on 111 in the first instance.
