Saskatoon police say the story of a man, who allegedly assaulted a teenage girl who refused to get into his truck, is fake.
The 15-year-old girl told police she was approached by a man driving a white Dodge Ram truck with an Alberta licence plate on the afternoon of April 8 in the 3200-block of Milton Street.
She also said the man got out of his vehicle and struck her twice when she refused his offer for a ride in the Massey Place neighbourhood.
