Suspicious BEHAVIOuR

* WARNING *

 Hannah: Apologies to post such a worrying and negative post while enjoying this lovely weather, however I would just like to make parents aware.

My 13 year old daughter and her 13 year old cousin were approached by a black Audi as they were walking up from the Undercliff to the main road (next to the public toilets - Saltdean) at approximately 17.40 this afternoon.

The car drove down the slope from the main road and parked opposite the toilets. The car had black tinted windows. There were 5 men in the car.

My daughter and her cousin described the men as Asian ageing from approximately 30 - 45, the driver was thick set and appeared to be the oldest.

They opened the passenger windows of the car and my daughter and her cousin believed they were either filming them or taking photos of them with their mobile phones. The front passenger and passenger in the back seat then called to them also making hand gestures to approach the car. The car only drove away when luckily a lady appeared walking her dog.

They are home and safe although they were both extremely distressed and we have had lots of tears! I have reported the incident to the police.
