Lt. Todd Pletnick said he spoke with supervisors who were working the past few days and no such reports have been received by police. He did say is was possible that the incident was not reported to police.

As LevittownNow.com reported earlier in the day, Pletnick said there was a suspicious persons call on Friday. In that incident, a man was giving calculators to school-aged children outside a local convenience store. There was no indication it was any thing more than somebody doing something nice, the lieutenant said.

Pletnick did say that his officers are aware of the attempted abduction in Morrisville Borough and remain vigilant.
