A SCHOOL has put staff and parents on alert after a man offered an "unwanted lift" to a child and adult.
Hilton Primary School sent a text message to all parents following the bizarre incident at 8.50am this morning.
The text message reads: "We have had a report of a white male in a black car offering an unwanted lift to school.
"The police have been notified but please remind your child about the importance of staying safe and saying 'no' to strangers."
Speaking to the Derby Telegraph, the school's head teacher Kevan Lomas said the incident was "a bit disconcerting".
He said: "The incident was reported by a chaperone transporting a child from a local nursery to us.
"It was not pouring with rain and they were not soliciting a lift."
A police spokeswoman confirmed the incident was being investigated.
