A post on social media from community Facebook group The Selsey Grapevine was shared more than three hundred time.
It warned residents of what had happened and told them to be vigilant when on the beach.
The post read: "If anyone has any further information about this incident, or saw anything suspicious, would they please come forward? It goes without saying, be very very vigilant folks, maybe even some reins on the little ones at this time of year might be a good idea."
