Police are appealing for people to remain calm after rumours of attempted child abductions swept social media.
Inspector Mark Britton says so far all of the reports about a man and a woman in a blue car in Pulrose at the end of last week remain unconfirmed.
But he says police take all such reports seriously, and they are looking into the matter.
Inspector Britton says people shouldn’t panic or take the law into their own hands:
