Suspicious incident on Hawkins Avenue

policebadgePARSIPPANY — Parsippany-Troy Hills Police Dispatchers were contacted by the mother of an 11-year-old female reporting a suspicious incident on Hawkins Avenue.

After speaking to the juvenile and her mother, the Officers were advised that a silver SUV, possibly a Lincoln Navigator with white stickers on the back, drove up next to the juvenile and attempted to engage her in conversation while walking on the shoulder of Hawkins Ave at approximately 8:25 a.m., on Thursday, March 10.

The juvenile ignored the male’s attempts to speak to her at which time he turned onto a side street and left the area. The juvenile continued to the bus stop and boarded the school bus without incident. The male is described as a white male in his mid to late 30’s with short brown hair, short brown beard and wearing a white t-shirt.

It should be noted at no time did the male attempt to get the juvenile into his vehicle or allude to what his reasons were to speak to the juvenile female.

“Keeping our children safe is always of paramount importance. We urge you to be vigilant in making your children wary of strangers. Please let them know to tell an adult immediately if an incident occurs and to try to get a license number if at all possible. Any incident needs to be reported immediately to a responsible adult and the police should always be notified,” saidDr. LeRoy Seitz.

This incident is under investigation by the Parsippany Police Departments Investigative Division. If you know who the vehicle belongs too, saw this vehicle or incident, or are the driver of the vehicle, we would like to speak to you. Please contact the Parsippany Police Department Investigative Division at (973) 263-4311.
