Police have issued a warning to parents at a Macclesfield primary school after a man approached two girls to offer them money.

The incident occurred this morning outside Whirley Primary School at around 8:25am when the man pulled up alongside the KS2 pupils in his car and attempted to hand them a £20 note while asking: "Do you want some money?"

A post on the Broken Cross and Upton Facebook page said: "Investigations are ongoing, it is believed the suspect drove a black/grey car. Male description is 30/40 years old, slim build, dark hair, neatly dressed."

The police have urged anyone who witnessed the incident to get in touch with them by calling 101 and quoting the incident number IML849176.
