Officers investigating a suspicious incident which saw a man approach a child and reportedly say "come with me" have released a description as they continue to hunt for the suspect.

Earlier this month a boy on a scooter was approached by the man in Victoria Park near to where it meets with Princes Drive.

The suspect is described as being "approximately 6 foot tall, 30 years old, with tanned skin and a small puffy black beard".

He was reportedly wearing a black puffer coat with black Nike trainers with white soles.

Detective Constable Stone said: "We would greatly appreciate any information that the public can share with us.

"If you are the man described in this appeal, please get in touch with us as soon as possible so we can discuss what happened."

Anyone with information is asked to call 101 or visit www.warwickshire.police.uk/ro/report/ocr/af/how-to-report-a-crime, citing crime reference 23/672/24.
