Safety


Toronto Police notified TDSB schools about an incident that was reported to have happened near Jane and Dundas. A 14 year-old girl was walking in the Jane-Dundas area when she was approached by a man in a vehicle who asked the girl to enter the vehicle. The student did exactly the right thing in not responding to the man and quickly removing herself from the situation. The girl then made her way home where she reported what had happened. Police were contacted and are investigating.

A description of the man is not available but police are looking for a black vehicle, possibly a Dodge Jeep with a licence plate that may be BCCA 326. According to police, another similar incident was earlier reported to have happened involving a vehicle fitting that same description. Anyone who might have information about either incident, or who sees a vehicle fitting this description is asked to contact police through Crime Stoppers at 416-222 TIPS (8477), or online at www.222tips.com. If the driver appears to be doing anything suspicious or criminal, please call 9-1-1.
