Parents and schools have been warned after a 14-year-old Orpington schoolgirl was followed by three men in a car.

The youngster was walking home from a rehearsal at The Priory School, in Orpington, when she became aware of a car following her along Mungo Park Way.

Three men were inside, and they stopped the car next to her before opening the passenger door.

One of the men allegedly winked at her.

But when they saw her walk back onto the road they reversed the car to be alongside her again.

She ran down an alleyway where the car could not follow.

An alert was issued to all schools after the incident, which happened on Saturday (July 11) around 12.15pm.

Pupils were reminded to be extra vigilant on their way to and from school.

A spokesman for the Met Police confirmed a ‘personal safety’ reminder had been sent out to all Orpington schools. 

The school has been contacted for a comment.
