TORONTO --
Toronto police are investigating after a man allegedly attempted to abduct a child in Toronto’s Junction neighbourhood.
On Thursday, police responded to reports of a suspicious incident in the area of Clendenan Avenue and Dundas Street West shortly before 1:30 p.m.
A girl was reportedly waiting to cross the street on her scooter when a man driving a white van yelled out to her "get in my van, get in the back of my truck,” police said in a press release on Friday.
The girl ran away from the man and the van, police said.
The van is described as a newer model white cargo van.
