Police In Bucks County Increase Patrol Following Alleged Luring Incident

By David Spunt

NORTHAMPTON Twp., Pa., (CBS) -- Police in a Bucks County community have stepped up patrols after two female middle school students say a man allegedly tried to lure them into his car.

"To us, it's very concerning," Northampton Township Police Chief Michael Clark told Eyewitness News.

Clark says the alleged incident happened at Watergate Drive and Bridgetown Pike around 3:15 p.m. Monday following school.

According to Clark, the man drove a white sedan with tinted windows. He said both girls ran away after the man yelled at them to get in the car.

"We're worried about the well-being and safety of our children in our neighborhoods," Clark said.

On Tuesday, police were called to Rolling Hills Elementary School after someone spotted a white car with tinted windows. Clark told Eyewitness News the driver entered then left the parking lot. After talking to a witness from Monday's incident, Clark says the two are not related. He said the make and model of the car is different.

If you have any information to help detectives, call Northampton Township Police at 215-322-6111.
