POLICE are appealing for help following the attempted abduction of a teenager in Chelmsley Wood last week.
The 16-year-old girl was making her way home along Moorend Avenue, near the junction with Ely Close, just before 8pm on Saturday when a man spoke to her.
She ignored him and carried on walking, but he followed her and grabbed her coat, pulling her towards his car.
Fortunately the teenager was able to break free and run home, where she contacted police
PC Gareth Bowen, from Solihull Police, said: "Fortunately the teenager was unhurt but she was left shaken by the incident and frightened to go out alone.
"We’re asking for anyone who has seen a dark grey two door car with silver tape on the passenger side window and at the bottom of the door to contact us."
The man is described as black, in his late 20s or early 30s, with a slim build and a shiny bald/shaven head and full beard. He was wearing a black t-shirt and dark blue jeans.
Anyone who witnessed the incident or who has information should call PC Bowen on 101 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
