Gardaí are believed to be looking for a man who attempted to abduct two young girls in Donegal on Friday evening.
According to Donegal Daily, a man driving ‘a red transporter van’ approached the children and offered to buy them sweets.
The children’s grandmother was with them but she was a few steps behind when the incident happened near Drumkeen.
While picking up a toy belonging to her grandchild, she could see that a stranger had approached the children and shouted out immediately.
The man, described as clean-shaven and in his 60s, sped off when he heard the adult voice.
A Garda investigation has been launched and parents are advised to remain vigilant at all times.
