Man and Woman Approach Young Girl at Elizabeth Park in Trenton

Trenton police received a report about a man and a woman approaching a young girl at about 8:15 p.m. April 27 in Elizabeth Park.

A 59-year-old grandfather told police he was riding bicycles with his four grandchildren when a man and woman in a silver, possibly 2008, Ford F-150 approached one of his grandchildren.

The man said he was about 30 to 40 yards behind his grandchildren when he noticed the male driver of the truck speaking with his granddaughter.

When he arrived at the truck he asked the driver what was going on and the male replied, "The little girl looked tired I was seeing if she needed a ride," according to a Trenton police report.

The man said his grandchildren were fine and the two drove away.

The man described the driver as a white male with black hair in his late 20s or early 30s with a dark-colored tattoo on his upper left arm. Neither the grandfather nor his grandchildren could describe the female, but told police there was a female passenger in the truck.

A similar instance took place on April 24 when a young girl was approached by a male and a female in the area of Charlton and Lenox.

Police said the vehicle in both incidents was a silver pickup truck occupied by a male driver and a female passenger. The occupants asked the young girl if she needed a ride. The girl declined the proposition and the two drove away.

Trenton Police Chief Jim Nardone could not be reached for comment.
