Hampshire Police are continuing to question a 46 year old man from Eastleigh on suspicion of attempting to abduct a child

A man driving a white van approached an 11 year old girl as she was pushing her bike along Alan Drayton Way in Fair Oak last Wednesday evening (17th July) between 7 and 7.15pm.

She was frightened by questions he was asking and managed to cycle away.

Officers are appealing for information from the public.

They would like to hear from any witnesses who may have been stopped in traffic as a result of the transit style van stopping on Alan Drayton Way or may have spoken to or seen the girl visibly upset afterwards.

The 46 year old man remains in custody.
