Police Searching for Man Who Attempted to Get Child in His Car

The Guelph Police Service is investigating after a man tried to get a child into his vehicle Saturday night.

Approximately 9 p.m. a mother and her 13-year-old daughter had just left a business near Paisley Road and Imperial Road South. The daughter was approached by a man who told her to get into the vehicle to play a game called “happy car.” The mother yelled at the man and he drove away.

He was described as a white man in his late 20s or early 30s, with wavy light sandy brown hair and a goatee. He was driving a white SUV.
