"Dunedin Police seeking help to identify a driver seen around Fairfield School"

Dunedin Police are appealing for help from the public in identifying a driver and his vehicle who made inappropriate comments to a Fairfield School student on Friday afternoon.

The driver is described as a clean shaven Caucasian male with dark hair shaven at sides and longer on top.

It is thought he is around 20-30 years old.

The car was a light blue four door hatchback, similar to the attached photo.

The car had black seats or seat covers and it appears the windows were wind up, not electric.

Police will have a presence around the school in the coming days and request any other students who are approached by anyone suspicious to tell a parent or teacher as soon as possible.

Police ask parents to take the opportunity to reiterate keeping safe while travelling to and from school and what to do if they are approached by someone who makes them feel uncomfortable.

You may wish to encourage them to walk to school in pairs or groups when possible.
