Detectives now believe both attempted abductions, just four days apart from March 18 -12, could be linked.

Detective Inspector Jon Cross, from Humberside Police, said: "We have increased patrols in the two areas, viewed CCTV from the area and followed up a number of lines of enquiry.

“The suspect is described by both boys as having tanned skin, possibly of middle-eastern origin, aged between 30 and 40, of chubby build and bald.

“We are aware that reports of this nature can cause real concern in the community and we would like to reassure residents that we are working hard to establish what happened and find the driver.

“Both boys did exactly as we would want them to. They didn’t get into the car and reported it to us as soon as possible and I would ask anyone else approached in this way to do the same."

Anybody who can help with the investigation should call 101, quoting reference 16/35678/19.
