DOUGLAS — Police are searching for a man they said tried to lure two teenage girls into his gray minivan Saturday near Fuller Elementary School.

The man followed the girls, ages 13 and 14, three blocks while waving at them to come closer about 1 p.m. Saturday in the 600 block of East 42nd Street, police said.

When the girls refused to follow him, the man turned north on Cottage Grove Avenue and drove off, according to police.

Police are asking anyone with information about the man to call detectives at 312-747-8380.
