13-year-old approached by man near Park Lawn school

TORONTO, Ont. – Toronto police are looking to speak to a man driving a light blue older style van, after a 13-year-old girl was hollered at by the driver.

The teen was walking to Park Lawn Junior Middle School in Etobicoke, Wednesday morning, when a man drove up beside her and said she looked familiar.

The girl told the man that she didn’t know him. He commented that she was very pretty and tried to chat her up.

When the girl didn’t respond, the man drove off.

Police told 680News they are treating this as a suspicious incident and not an attempted abduction.

“There was no physical contact at this point that we’re aware of between the victim and the man,” Toronto police Const. Wendy Drummond told 680News.

Police took a statement from the teen and are asking anyone who may have witnessed the incident to contact them.
