The Old Man
At around 5:30am, a witness on his way to work reported seeing an elderly man standing in the road. The elderly gentleman asked for directions, to which the witness duly obliged. Instead of thanking him, the old man just said “I’ve been trying to get out of this street all night. Please can you help me?” and vanished. He was described as wearing “musty clothes with an old hat and cravat”.
