Mounties are investigating a report of a man following a child home from school in West Kelowna, just one day after a similar incident in Kelowna.

On Tuesday afternoon, Jan. 5, a 12-year-old girl was walking home from school by herself near the Country Pines Way area. She noticed a van travelling behind her at a slow pace, became concerned, and ran home.

Following this, West Kelowna RCMP is urging the public to be vigilant.

The van was large, white in colour and the driver is described as a middle-aged man with a round face and greying brown hair.
