SUSPICIOUS INCIDENT

Dear Parents/Guardians:

Two weeks ago, we wrote to you about a suspicious incident in the Quebec and Annette area. At that time, it was reported that a man in a white truck had approached a 13 year-old girl as she made her way to school one morning and asked her to enter the vehicle. On November 27, police issued a community safety alert about that incident and another that was reported the next day.

We have learned about a similar situation that was reported to have happened yesterday afternoon (December 2nd) in our community. Five teenage girls from a neighbouring high school were walking together on Evelyn Crescent when they were approached by a white truck with four men inside. One of the men asked the girls to get into the truck. The girls did the right thing to remove themselves from the area and quickly return to their school to report the incident to staff. Police were immediately called.

For your information, the driver of the truck had an olive complexion and was wearing a blue toque and a dark burgundy bulky coat. The passengers, one in the front and two in the back, were all white with facial stubble, and were wearing toques. The man in the front passenger seat had on a grey sweater. The truck had an extended cab and an open flatbed. The left back side of the truck had flickering tail lights. There was green writing or a stripe on the side of the truck and the inside of the truck was all black. If you have any information that might assist police with its investigation, please call 416-808-1100 or contact CrimeStoppers anonymously at 416-222-TIPS (8477) or at www.222tips.com.   

Our staff speak regularly with students about how to stay safe. If you have not already done so, we encourage you to reinforce these messages at home by reviewing the accompanying safety tips (on the reverse of this letter) with your children.
Let’s continue to work together to make our community as safe as possible.

Sincerely,

Anne MacDonald
