Chicago police are searching for a man who they say tried to lure a 14-year-old girl into his white SUV on Monday afternoon.
About 4:45 p.m. in the 1900 block of North Orchard Street, a 34- to 42-year-old man was driving when he pulled up near the girl and asked her if she wanted a ride. The teenage girl took off running in the Lincoln Park neighborhood and the man, described by police as Hispanic, drove off.
The man was wearing a gray baseball hat, gray T-shirt and blue jeans. He has brown hair with triangle face tattoos.
Police are warning parents to not let children walk or play alone and for neighbors to be aware of suspicious people. If you have any information about the man or the vehicle, call Area Central detectives at 312-747-8380.
