Police Investigating ‘Suspicious’ Incident Involving Men in White Van & Teen Girl


UPDATED: Friday, 11:46 a.m.:

From the victim’s mother:

My daughter and her friend were at the street light at the end of my street talking before curfew. As they always have since 6th grade. This van was creeping slowly passed them and honked. They then went around my block, stopped at the stop sign, turn off the headlights and sat there staring at the girls. My daughter only saw the passenger, because it was dark and he was smoking a cigarette… after a few minutes they sped out like leaving tire marks up to the next street.. Clearly didn’t know my house was 3 houses away… so my daughter ran home and my husband was already outside after hearing the tire screech… as she was telling us what happened, the van went flying down MY street again. So I called the police as my husband jumped into his car and tried to find them…
