Attempted abduction rumours on Bransholme being investigated by police
BRANSHOLME: Police have said they are "thoroughly investigating" rumours of an attempted accosting on the estate.
Officers have been contacted by worried parents after speculation on social media websites, including Facebook and Twitter.

Officers are now investigating whether any offences have taken place and are appealing for the van driver to come forward.
