Brown City woman reports attempted child abduction

The Lapeer County Sheriff Department is investigating a possible attempted child abduction this past Friday.

A Brown City mother called police August 5, reporting that a white man, age 50-60, attempted to lure her children closer to his vehicle as they played outside the Gosline Road home. When she approached instead, he told her that he was trying to get directions for milk, trying to have her get into his grey or blue four-door Nissan for the directions, leaving when she called police.

With the investigation ongoing, the Lapeer County Sheriff Department urges anyone with more information to call (810) 667-0292 with their tips.
