Hanson Police are investigation reports that a suspicious man approached children and asked them to get inside his vehicle.
Chief Michael Miksch says officers were dispatched to the area of 500 Whitman St., shortly before 10 a.m. Saturday, where a caller said that his son and friend, both under the age of 12, were approached by a man who allegedly asked if they wanted any toys.
After telling him no, he allegedly told them to “just get in” to his van.
The boys fled the area and informed their parents.
The suspect is described as a white man, between 35 and 40-years-old, with a short buzz-cut haircut and glasses.
Miksch says video feed from a neighboring resident shows a white work van, possibly a Ford E-Series E-250 cargo van with roof racks and running boards and the children said the van had rust and writing on the back, but were unable to recall what the writing was.
Anyone with information about this incident is being asked to call the Hanson Police Department at 781-293-4625.
