Police are appealing for information after a woman was followed in a “suspicious incident” in Colwyn Bay. ‌​‌‌​​​‌‍‌​‌​‌​​​

The incident took place at approximately 7.05pm on Wednesday, January 4 when a woman was walking to her car after work from Rhiw Road towards Claughton Road. ‌​‌‌​​​‌‍‌​‌​‌​​​

He was said to be showing her his hand and asking her to help him with it but his hand was empty. ‌​‌‌​​​‌‍‌​‌​‌​​​

The woman told him she couldn’t help and walked quickly to her car whilst on the phone to her mother. ‌​‌‌​​​‌‍‌​‌​‌​​​

When she got into the car, she saw the man had followed her and was stood at her car window, before locking the car and driving off. ‌​‌‌​​​‌‍‌​‌​‌​​​
