Teen saves girl, 11, from man who claimed he was her ‘dad’s mate’

Teen praised for stopping young girl being led away by man claiming to be her \'Dad\'s friend\'

A quick-thinking teenager has been praised for stopping a random stranger from luring a young schoolgirl away with him.

Emma Carlile, 15, spotted an older man approaching the girl – thought to have been around 11 – and telling her he was her ‘dad’s mate’.

Her dad, Rik, said he was ‘immensely proud’ of his daughter, who was walking home from Weatherhead High School in Merseyside when the situation caught her attention.

‘She said she was walking along and she saw a “creepy looking man” approach a young girl and put his arm around her, which she thought looked odd,’ Rik explained.

‘She noticed when the man approached her she looked a bit startled and then she heard the man say, “I’m your dad’s friend, don’t you remember me? I’ve been to your house before.”‘

Emma said the young girl, who may have even been of primary school age, was wearing a coat so couldn’t tell which school she was from, but she was wearing a Harry Potter rucksack.

Rik said: ‘The girl was saying, “No, I don’t remember,” but he kept going on saying, “I’m your dad’s friend, I’ve met you before.”

‘Emma said you could tell that the girl just looked like she had no recollection of him whatsoever which is why she kept an eye on them.

‘At one point the girl tried to get her phone out and the man said, “No, you don’t need to ring anyone, you know who I am, I’m your dad’s mate.”

‘She followed them around the corner and when they got by the crossing she thought she would just say something.

‘She shouted the first name that came into her head, she said: “Hey Bethany! Dad will be home tonight from police training.”

‘Apparently the girl looked at her and just opened her eyes wide as if to say thank you. She said she looked startled.’

After that the man reportedly walked quickly away down towards Wallasey Village train station.

Rik said the girl thanked his daughter, and Emma told her to make sure she got home safe and tell her parents what had happened.

The man has been described as around 6ft tall, with short grey hair and stubble, and of large build wearing a green t-shirt and black trousers.

Rik reported the incident to the police and posted on Facebook to warn other parents.

The post received hundreds of comments from parents praising Emma for her ‘quick thinking’ and ‘bravery’.

One woman posted: ‘Well done to your daughter, this is such an amazing thing she’s done you must be so proud.’

Another replied: ‘Well done to your daughter, she has potentially just saved that young girls life. Amazing what a credit to you.’

Rik said he doesn’t believe Emma has done anything out of the ordinary.

‘When you speak to Emma about it she’s really blasé, and she’s just like I could see was uncomfortable,’ he added.

‘I told her again this morning, you could have saved that girl’s life, you just don’t know.’

A spokesperson for Merseyside Police said: ‘We received a third party report from a member of the public at 6.45pm yesterday, Tuesday, June 15, that earlier that day a female walking through Wallasey village had been approached by an older male who had put his arm round her.

‘A teenager approached the pair and spoke to the female and the man walked away in the direction of the train station.

‘Neither the female or the male have been identified at this stage.’
