Delaware Police Searching For Suspect In Attempted Luring Of Teen Girls

DOVER, Del. (CBS) – Police in Delaware are investigating the attempted luring of two teenage girls early Tuesday morning.

The incidents happened at about 7 a.m. at the Eagle Meadows Development in Dover.

According to investigators, a 13-year-old girl was walking to the bus stop when she was approached by a male driving a gray Honda Civic. The teen told police the suspect asked her if she wanted a ride and when she declined, he asked her if she wanted to be his girlfriend. The victim again declined at which time the suspect drove away.

The victim then went to her bus stop and reported the incident when she arrived at school.

Through further investigation, it was discovered that the same suspect had approached a second female student earlier in the same development as she walked to her bus stop. After asking the victim the same questions, he again drove off.

The suspect is described as a black male, 30-45 years-old, wearing a brown jacket and driving a gray older model Honda Civic 4 door.
