City Police issue warning --- suspicious circumstances

North Bay Police Service
News Release

*************************

Approximately one week ago a 9 year old boy was approached by a man in a vehicle near the entrance of Rivers Rd. (near Highway 11 south) in Callander.

At this time it is alleged that the male driver attempted to lure the boy within the vehicle and offered him a ride to school.

It is then that the boy’s school bus arrived and the driver left.

Several days later the boy told his mother of this incident and a short time after that, this same vehicle was seen near the driveway of this same home.

It appears that this same vehicle has been seen in the general area over the past 2 months.

This last time that the vehicle was seen, a male with long hair to his shoulders was sitting as a front passenger.
The vehicle in question is described as black with no front plate and might possibly be a Mustang.

The driver is described as male white, in his late 20s to early 30s, long dark hair with a couple of day’s growth of facial hair.
