Were you walking your dog in Whytleafe recreation ground, Warlingham, Surrey on October 5?
Surrey Police continue to investigate following reports of a suspicious incident near Warlingham School and are keen to speak to a couple who were walking their dog and may have seen part of the incident.
A young school girl was outside the school in Tithepit Shaw Lane, just before 4pm when a man walked past her and asked for her name. It is also alleged that he was brandishing a knife.
She ran off and the man also left the scene. A search of the area was carried out but the man was not located.
The man is described as black, in his late 20s-early 30s, 6ft tall, of medium build, with very short hair, and was wearing jeans and a dark blue hooded top. He was carrying a dark green bag.
DC Paul Fitzpatrick said: “We are carrying out a full investigation to find the person responsible and as part of our enquiries we are keen to speak to a couple who were walking their dog through Whytleafe recreation ground between 3.15pm and 3.46pm. The couple either had a black and grey dog with white patches or a white dog with black and grey patches. They may have seen some of the incident and we’d really like to speak to them.”
