An investigation has begun by the Winnipeg Police Service’s Child Abuse Unit after some children playing outside were approached by an unknown vehicle in the 100 block of Kinver Avenue.
Around 5 p.m. on February 25, the school-aged children ran home and told a parent that a man in a light-coloured vehicle, either a van, truck or SUV, pulled up beside them and offered them money and a ride.
The male suspect has been described with a brown complexion. The suspect may have been wearing a mask. The vehicle was last seen moving westbound down Kinver.
The investigation is in the early stages. Anyone with information, including home surveillance or dash-cam footage, is encouraged to contact the Child Abuse Unit at 204-986-3296 or anonymously at Crime Stoppers 204-786-TIPS or winnipegcrimestoppers.org.
