Abduction Attempt on Woman walking in Tring

Detectives are seeking witnesses, information, and dash cam footage related to an incident in Tring on Tuesday evening (August 20).

A woman walking along Bulbourne Road between 10:00 PM and 10:30 PM was approached by a man in a small grey car. The suspect is described as a white male with a slim build.

The man repeatedly urged her to get into the vehicle, but when she refused, he grabbed her cardigan. An altercation followed, and the man eventually drove off toward the Grand Junction Arms.

Detective Sergeant Yolanda Morales-Willis, from the Dacorum Local Crime Unit, said: “Understandably, this incident has left the victim extremely shaken.

“We’re conducting enquiries to try and trace the vehicle and the driver as a matter of urgency.

“As part of this, we are appealing for anyone with information to please contact us immediately.

“Were you driving in the area at the time? Did you see a small grey vehicle travelling in the area or parked up in Bulbourne Road? Did you capture it on dash cam? Any information at all could assist us as we work to progress our investigation.”

If you were in the area during that time, saw a small grey vehicle, or have relevant dash cam footage, please contact the police immediately. Your assistance could be crucial in progressing the investigation. You can reach out via email or call the non-emergency number 101, quoting crime reference 41/69408/24.
