'Older Man' Tries to Lure Clarendon Hills Boy into SUV: Police

An 11-year-old boy from Clarendon Hills twice rejected an "older man’s" offer to drive him home Wednesday evening in a child luring incident, police said.

According to the Chicago Tribune’s reporting, the incident occurred around 7:20 p.m. at Walker and Harris avenues and was reported at 7:31 p.m. The boy said the man who approached him that evening was driving an SUV.

After saying he didn’t want a ride home once, the boy reportedly told police the man asked him again. After that attempt, the boy said he ran home.

The report has been shared with other police departments in the area, the Tribune stated.
