Police have issued a warning to women after two suspicious incidents in Hampshire.

Officers are appealing for information following two suspicious incidents in Portsmouth.

They are investigating after two women reported being approached by a man in the early hours of the morning on two separate occasions.

Both women reported being approached by a man who was driving a black car, possibly a BMW. Neither were injured.

The first incident happened on Sunday in Cambridge Road when a 22-year-old woman was approached at around 4am.

The second happened at around 3am yesterday in Burnaby Road when a 20-year-old woman was approached.

Detective Inspector Linda Howard said: "While incidents like these can cause people to be alarmed, I would like to reassure members of the public that we are following several lines of enquiry and carrying out patrols in the area.

"We would just like to remind anyone who is out walking alone at night to take the usual precautions and be vigilant of your surroundings.

"As ever, we would advise people to keep to well-lit areas, walk with friends or use public transport or taxis where possible and if you do see anything suspicious please let us know."

Anyone with information about either incident is asked to contact us on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
