Strathcona County RCMP are investigating an incident where an eight-year-old girl was allegedly approached by a male in a truck on Thursday in Sherwood Park.
Police say the child was playing in her front yard in Clarkdale Meadows when she was approached by a truck full of people. RCMP say a man got out of the truck and said: “Come here. We are taking you for a ride.”
The child ran to the residence and the man got back into the truck and drove away.

The driver is described as a man with curly hair. The front-seat passenger is described as a male, 16 to 17 years old, with long blonde hair and an earring in his left ear. Police say the passenger was wearing black jeans and a T-shirt with a skull and crossbones on it.
