An appeal has been launched to track down a man who was allegedly impersonating a police officer in Trafford over the weekend.

Greater Manchester Police have said that a woman reported that at around 10.30pm on Sunday, March 10, she was approached by a man she did not know in Urmston.

The man was said to be impersonating a police officer and was driving a black car with five doors.

He has been described as being of a slim build with short, dark brown hair and was wearing a dark-coloured tracksuit top at the time of the incident.

No further details were provided and police have said they have "very limited information" regarding the incident, which has prompted them to appeal to the public for help.

Anyone with any information regarding the incident is urged to contact police by calling 101.
