Stranger approaches provoke police warning
Oct 1st
Recently, parents have reported that a male in a white SUV has approached children and at least one adult in a large geographic area in Boulder, which includes the area of the 2200 block of Balsam, the 400 block of Highland and the 2000 block of Alpine Avenue.
No one has been able to provide a concrete description of the SUV or the possible suspect, and the people approached are both males and females from 7-to-20 years old. One of those who reported being contacted by the male says she was offered a ride and ran away. Others say a white SUV approached them but that the person driving it didn’t speak to them. An adult who noticed a white SUV told police that a man was sleeping inside it.
Descriptions of the suspect vary; police were told he was 30-to-60 years old; that he had white hair or salt-and-pepper hair and that he had a full beard or was clean-shaven; that he wore glasses and that he didn’t wear glasses. The SUV descriptions differ as well.
Neighbors shared an informational email in an effort to inform each other about the incidents, and detectives have investigated all the reports.
Police offer some tips for keeping kids safe:
- Tell your kids to walk with others and stay in well-lit areas
- Always supervise younger children, even in groups
- Tell your kids to never, ever get into a car with a stranger
- Let your child know you will never send an unknown adult to pick them up – ever
- If a stranger does approach your child, your child should RUN, YELL and REPORT the stranger to a trusted adult. It’s not appropriate for adults to approach children.
Here are some ploys strangers may use:
- Asks for help finding a lost pet
- Invites the child to a car to see a new puppy
- Offers candy, toys or food
- Asks for directions
- Offers a ride
Police remind people to call 9-1-1 if they are in a situation which they feel is unsafe, or if they notice a situation involving someone else.
The Boulder Police Department will keep the public apprised of any developments or public safety issues which arise.
