This is a Lincolnshire alert message.
"Its come to our attention that a Green Astra partial registration Mark of T903 with three males described as possibly Eastern European origin, well tanned and all well built approx 5’6” tall are targeting supermarket car parks and engaging with customers asking directions to Luton Airport and pick pocketing the customer while they are distracted.
