Has been reported to Police. Silver Audi. BE AWARE.’\n\nNorth Wales Police they are investigating but no arrests have been made.\n\n******Get in touch with our news team by emailing us atwebnews@metro.co.uk.******\n\n**For more stories like this,** check our news page.\n\nComment now Comments \nAdd Metro as a Preferred Source on Google\nAdd as preferred source\n",
