According to a report by TLS, at least two troubling incidents have been reported to police in the past few days.

Residents of the Lakewood Commons and Chesterfield Commons neighborhood report to TLS that around 12 PM yesterday, a driver, identified as a black female driving a black vehicle, pulled up alongside an approximately 8-year-old boy, and told him to come into her vehicle. The boy, riding a bike, immediately fled to his home.

At approximately 6 PM, a similar incident occurred, area residents tell TLS.

The residents say a white SUV driven by a black female offered candy to five and seven year-old boys, motioning them to come to her vehicle. The children also ran home.

The incidents – unknown if connected – were both reported to police.
