TWO men have been approaching schoolgirls in Bridgwater in what is believed to be an attempt to lure them into a car.

Horrified mother Nichola Watson said the two men had tried to beckon her daughter over after pulling up in a big black car, with blacked out windows near the "wooden park" off Frampton Road on Monday evening.

Since then the two men, one described as being aged between 35 and 50 with grey hair wearing a black jacket and the other a bit younger wearing a red jacket, have been spotted again and reportedly approached another girl in Parkway in Bridgwater at around 5pm last night.

Police say they are treating the issue "very seriously" and would like further witnesses to come forward.
