Keir Street: Boy Escapes From Paedophile

Police are appealing for witnesses after a man tried to lure a 12-year-old boy into his car in Stirlingshire.

The boy was walking along Keir Street in Bridge of Allan at about 17:45 on Monday when he was approached by a man in an old-looking silver vehicle.


After the boy declined a lift, the man became angry and demanded he get into the car but the boy managed to run off.

The suspect had an unkempt long beard, and was wearing a grey AC/DC T-shirt with the motif in red and white.

Police officers have since been trying to trace the suspect and have now appealed for anyone who may have information to come forward.

He was wearing silver-rimmed aviator shades.

Det Con Gavin Dingwall said: "Although the boy was not threatened or assaulted during this incident, it did leave him shaken and upset.
