Regan McClinton, 21, followed and attacked the children within less than 30 minutes of each other in Blantyre, Lanarkshire.

Aged 18 at the time, he was caught on CCTV following the first girl on Broompark Road in broad daylight on April 22, 2023.

He grabbed the 15-year-old by the hair and body before dragging her into an alley where he took her mobile phone.
