The Fort St. John RCMP has turned to the public for help in identifying a suspect and vehicle involved in an alleged abduction attempt that occurred in Taylor weeks ago.
According to police, on May 6th at approximately 9:15 p.m. a male suspect driving a small tan-coloured pickup truck approached a youth and offered them a ride. Investigators say when the youth declined, the driver made additional verbal attempts to get the youth in the vehicle before fleeing toward Fort St. John.
The suspect is described as a white male in his mid-40s, wearing a black and white busy beard, balding, with shorter stature, and weighing around 250 pounds.
The investigation is currently underway and anyone with information regarding the identity of the suspect, or possible sightings of the vehicle in question is asked to contact the Fort St. John RCMP at (250)-787-8100.
