POLICE are seeking help in tracking down a woman who has been approaching children in the Great Broughton area, near Stokesley.
There have been two incidents in the village in the past two months.
In the first incident, on May 27, at about 6.30pm, a woman on a distinctive pink bicycle approached three youngsters including two 11-year-old girls and a nine-year-old boy. She tried to persuade the children to go with her but they refused and went to a nearby house for safety.
In the latest incident, on Tuesday, a ten-year-old boy was approached at about 7.30pm by a woman in a 4x4 vehicle. When he refused to get in the car, she drove off. The woman is described as in her 30s or early 40s, about 5ft 4ins with shoulder-length, frizzy ginger hair.
