Women are being warned to stay alert when walking home late at night follow two allegations of people being followed in Falmouth.

In both alleged incidents a “man dressed in black” wearing a hooded top to cover his face has followed the women home – and in one, even went so far as to grab her, it is claimed.

Harry Hewlett wrote a post yesterday on Facebook titled “Warning: women in Falmouth area.”

He claimed: “Two incidents in the last week where a woman has been walking home late at night and been followed by a man described as in his 30s, medium height, dressed in black with a hoodie on hiding his face.

“The first incident occurred on Lambs Lane last Tuesday, the guy got as far as the driveway before going away.

“The second incident occurred on Albany Road last Friday. The guy followed the woman to her door, grabbed her as she tried to enter her house and then left after she threatened to wake up her neighbours.

“The police have been informed of both incidents. Take care and stay safe.”

The Packet has spoken to police but has not been provided with any more details.
