Police are asking the public for help to locate a suspect after a teenage girl was approached by a man in a vehicle while walking to school on Friday morning.

The girl was walking near Brabourne Road and Brookpark Drive S.W. at about 8:30 a.m. when a vehicle pulled up to her and a man rolled down the passenger window and told her to get in.

She refused and as she walked away the man told her not to ignore him and that he wanted to talk to her. She ran away as he continued to yell at her.

The suspect is described as:

  • Black male
  • In his 30 or 40s
  • Wearing a ball cap

The vehicle the suspect was driving is described as an older-model, dark-coloured, four-door sedan with tinted windows.
