Halifax Regional Police are trying to identify a man who allegedly offered a teen girl a ride last week in Bedford.
According to police, the 15-year-old girl was walking in the area of Gary Martin Drive and Innovation Drive at around 9:15 a.m. on Jan. 23. It’s reported the man, who was in a vehicle, asked if the girl would like a drive to school and “advised her to get in the car.”
