Feilding Police want to hear from anyone who has seen a man acting suspiciously near local schools after police received reports about the man following children in the past week.
Detective Felicity Cato of the Feilding CIB says: "We have received four reports in the past week about a man acting suspiciously around schools and following children."
"We do not want to alarm parents and caregivers but we do want to identify and speak to this person and also speak to anyone who may have seen a man acting suspiciously around schools and parks.
These incidents reported to Police are a timely reminder for parents and caregivers to discuss with their children how they should keep themselves safe.
"Children need to know what to do in these situations. Calling out for help and making sure Police are notified as soon as possible is vital," says Detective Cato.
If you see someone acting suspiciously in your community please call 111 at the time.
