Police: Man Tried to Get Girl in His Car

A man in his 30s in a red vehicle tried to get a 16-year-old girl to get in last month, according to police.

 

Police are looking for a man who allegedly tried to get a 16-year-old Hamden High School students to get in his car last month.

The incident happened on April 26 on Stonewall Drive, according to Hamden Police spokesman Capt. Ronald Smith. Stonewall Drive is off of Still Hill Road in the vicinity of West Woods School.

The girls's mother told police that her daughter got off the school bus and was approached by a white man in his 30s with dark hair who was driving a red car, Smith said. 

The man tried several times to lure the girl into the car, asking if she wanted a ride to his house, but the girl refused, Smith said. The man then drove away, he said.

Police searched the area but couldn't find the man or the vehicle, Smith said. 

Anyone with information is asked to contact Officer Paul Calamita at 203-230-4000.

You've got to be kidding me. Do retirees need the gov to do this? What happened to personalRead More RESPONSIBILITY? Let the individual plan for their own retirement. Get the gov OUT of our lives. Yes, trust the state legislators, as we trusted the Social Security was supposed to be held In escrow, what happened? THEY STOLE THE MONEY AND USED IT FOR THEIR THINGS THEY THOUGHT WAS MORE BENEIFICIAL. So, let me get this straight- they take money out of the economy from us only to put it back into the economy because they know better how it should be used. Sure, that makes sense. They know better than YOU.
