Swansea: So, there was this really unsettling incident where a woman was just out for a walk when a guy in a white van started shouting at her. She was listening to a podcast, and suddenly, there’s this guy with a megaphone hanging out the window, yelling stuff at her.
This happened around lunchtime, and it seems like they were specifically targeting women. The woman, who didn’t want to give her name, was on a road that students often use to get to shops. She said she didn’t catch everything he said, but it was definitely aimed at her.
At first, she thought it was just a weird moment and tried to brush it off. But then, the van came back around, and the shouting got even louder. It was pretty aggressive, and she felt like it was directed right at her. She mentioned that she’s used to being cat-called, but this felt different.
After the incident, she called the police, but since they didn’t have a number plate, they weren’t sure how much they could do. It left her feeling uneasy, especially as she continued her walk, wondering if the van would come back.
She was also worried about other people in the area, especially young girls from the nearby school. It’s a busy spot, and she felt it was important to keep an eye out for everyone. The whole thing was just really unsettling, and she hoped the police could do something about it.
South Wales Police confirmed they received reports about the incident and are looking for anyone who might have more information. It’s a reminder that we all need to stay aware of our surroundings, especially in situations like this.
