Mishawaka Police are spreading the word about the attempted abduction of two children walking home from school.
The two students from Emmons School, ages 10 and 11, a brother and sister, were walking to the home on West Ninth Street.
At some point during the walk, a black SUV “boxy style” stopped, and the passenger asked if they wanted a ride. The children refused.
They said the SUV started to follow and at one point the passenger, a male white 20-30 black hair, clean shaven, wearing a black shirt and blue shorts got out and started to chase them. The SUV has a scratch on the driver’s side, and on the window of the driver’s door. There was no description of the driver as the children did/could not see that person.
The children altered their route via alleys and different streets and made it safely to their grandmother’s house. The grandmother called the police.
