Child abduction images released

Unidentified men on Great Western Road and Renfrew Street

Police investigating two failed child abduction incidents in Glasgow have released CCTV images of men they want to interview.

A seven-year-old girl managed to escape from a man who had grabbed her at about 1505 GMT on Monday at the rear of the Dental Hospital in Renfrew Street.

About 40 minutes later a man tried to grab a seven-year-old boy as he boarded a bus at Great Western Road.

Police said that both incidents "do not appear to be linked".

The children involved were not injured but left badly shaken by their ordeals.

The officer in charge of the investigation, Det Insp Andy McWilliam, said: "I would appeal to the males in the photographs to come forward as they may be able to assist in these investigations.

"Furthermore, I would also appeal to members of the public who recognise these individuals to let us know who they are."
