HARPER WOODS, Mich. (FOX 2) - Police are investigating after children were approached by strangers over the weekend.
Harper Woods police officers responded to a home in the area of Hollywood and Harper on Sunday after two children, 4 and 7, were asked if they wanted candy by people in a vehicle that slowed down in front of the house. The children's father told police they said no, and the vehicle left.
Police said the vehicle was described as a white SUV occupied by a Black female and two males.
Later, the father saw a post on Facebook from a parent in St. Clair Shores who said their 5-year-old daughter was approached by people in a white Jeep Cherokee in the area of Harper, north of 8 Mile.
The girl was also asked if she wanted candy. She refused, and the vehicle left the area.
Harper Woods police put out a warning to parents, and asked that suspicious activity be reported to 313-343-2530.
