RCMP are looking for the driver of a tan coloured vehicle with tinted windows after a suspicious incident near Van Bien Elementary yesterday afternoon (Monday).

Police received a report that between the hours of 2:30 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. a young child was walking home from school on the 300 block of Wilson Crescent.

The youth reports a vehicle approached him and the male driver attempted to get the youth into his vehicle.

However, the vehicle drove off when an older student approached, offering to walk the youth home.

Investigators are asking anyone who noticed a vehicle matching the description, or anyone who may have a video recording of the incident to come forward.

Police would like to speak with the driver of the vehicle and encourage them to self-identify.
