A day after a stranger approached a young girl, telling her that her mother said she should go with him, London police say it was all a misunderstanding.
The girl was walking alone in the area of Stoneybrook Crescent and Hastings Gate at 8:45 Thursday morning when a van stopped beside her.
Police have told AM980 the girl refused and continued walking and the van drove off without approaching her any further.
