Oh my lord , I live in Poole and remember when this happenedWhen I was about 13 I was on the bus with my younger sister coming home from school. I had long hair up in a pony tail and as I was sitting there I felt someone tug at it. I turned around and there was a weird looking guy sat there with a pair of scissors and he’d actually cut a lock of my hair. I was freaked out and moved away from him. I was too scared to say anything to him and just remember thinking how weird it was. Fast forward quite a few years and there was a high profile murder in my home town. A mum of two had been murdered in her home and pretty much decapitated. My bloody ran cold when I read in the news that at his trial they said that prior to the murder he had travelled on buses cutting women’s hair and that he’s left some of that hair at the murder scene!!

I dread to think. It’s strange because at the time I remember thinking he did a double take and stopped as you do when you recognise a friend.Omg, scary to think how long he was watching you before the 'act of kindness'
That’s so scary....did you tell the policeWhen I was about 13 I was on the bus with my younger sister coming home from school.

Ah yes, I remember the good old days of 'legging it' from parks.When I was at college I used to hang around in the town park with a group of friends, we used to get pissed/stoned but wasn't a bother to anyone.
one night we were up there and a man kept walking around the park, circling us and muttering to him self, he then came and sat in the park on a swing and kept trying to get one of the lads to go over to him, they all refused. Minutes later he started manically laughing and signing "I've got a knife, let's slash them all" and then arguing with himself!
We were opposite the police station but none of us wanted to go over there as we were all underage and mobile phones weren't about then so we all just legged it
I remember that case vividly as it was so bizarre the way the guy went around cutting women's hair. The case was reported in detail on BBC South Today, which is my local news channel. He was also responsible for the murder of a teenager in Sicily where he was originally from - not surprised your blood ran cold!When I was about 13 I was on the bus with my younger sister coming home from school.

That's so true. I have large boobs and the casual abuse and piss taking I've had to endure over the years from random men is appalling. They seem to think it's funny, but it's not - it's humiliating, frightening and unacceptable. Seems some men have never learnt any empathy or manners. I had a day out at the races with my husband ruined when some oik deliberately rubbed his chest up against my boobs when passing me as I was queuing to place a bet - he then went over to his mates and was pointing and laughing at me. I wanted the ground to swallow me. On another occasion a weirdo followed me into my local shopping mall and groped my bum on the escalators - I whipped round to see who had touched me and he said "sorry it was a mistake"!! Fucking wanker. I practically ran back to my car to drive home as I wanted to be as far away as possible from him. I should have reported him, but I was just so shocked I wasn't thinking straight. I really seem to attract weirdos for some reason.I had a grim experience on the Paris metro when I was 21. Not going to tell the story as I don't want to trigger people. It was a long time ago and I am over it, but I will never forget his face. Ever.
Reading all these stories makes me so sad (and angry) that girls and women have to live looking over our shoulders at all times. We can never drop our guards. Ever!
I lived in Paris in 1999 when I was and had two horrendous experiences on the metro....I’ve had similar on packed tubes in London....although not as bad as the Paris incidents....am guessing some men think it’s a quick way to get a thrill without fear of ever getting caughtI had a grim experience on the Paris metro when I was 21.

That is really scary, and happens more than most people realise. People go missing all the time, but only a very small fraction of them ever get any publicity. So sad for the loved ones left behind. I came across this story in the Guardian nearly 2 years ago; I live in the South East but had never heard about the case - and yet others (Milly Dowler, Susie Lamplugh, Madeleine McCann) get masses of publicity. https://www.theguardian.com/film/2018/apr/29/ruth-wilson-surrey-schoolgirl-vanished-documentaryI once know someone who told me a story ......
years ago in the 80,S a group of friends went on holiday... they landed back at home. While they were waiting to be picked up one of the men went to the toilet....
The group of friends were waiting outside ... he never came out of the toilet... they searched the whole of the airport ... all restaurants all bars.... he was never seen again and never found.... very odd
I’m friends with the Aunt of the lad who disappeared on a night out in Bury a couple of years ago. He was in the army. Walked into a dead end alley way but was never seen again. Never came back out. Disappeared on cctv but nowhere he could have gone. It’s heartbreaking for them as they have no closure. They hold out hope he’ll be found one day.
