OPP seek help identifying suspicious man in Lakeshore

The Essex County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) need help identifying a suspicious person after an incident in Lakeshore.

Police say that on December 12 around 4:45 p.m., a parent contacted the OPP after their teenaged daughter was approached by a man while walking home on Notre Dame Street. The man reportedly stopped across the street from the young woman, rolled down the window of his grey colored 4-door pickup truck, and asked the young woman if she needed a ride.

The OPP provided a composite sketch of the subject. They say he is approximately 40 years-old, and was wearing a blue turban and gray long sleeved shirt at the time of the incident.

"The Essex County OPP major crime unit is asking that anyone having information regarding this person or vehicle, contact them immediately at 1-888-310-1122," a release from the police said. "Should you wish to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS) or leave an anonymous online message at www.catchcrooks.com."
