Attached is a letter regarding a suspicious incident that took place in Lapeer Township on November 12. This letter is going home with elementary and middle school students today. The information is read to the high school students.
Dear Parents,
We were made aware late yesterday of a suspicious incident in Lapeer Township that has been reported to the Lapeer County Sheriff’s Department.
A female student was walking in the area of Hunters Creek and Clark roads at about 4:15 p.m. on Friday, November 12, and was approached by a man in a
4-door silver Toyota who asked her if she needed a ride. The girl declined the ride, and the man left.
She later reported the incident to the Sheriff’s Department.
She described the driver as a younger Hispanic man with dark complexion. He was heavy-set and had very short black hair. She also gave the deputy a partial license plate number.
We are committed to protecting our students and know that you, as parents, will continue to teach your children how to best protect themselves and seek assistance if necessary. Please reinforce with your children the lessons about interacting with strangers and, of course, immediately notify the police or sheriff’s deputies if you see or hear anything out of the ordinary.
Sincerely,
Debbie Thompson
Superintendent
