Safety Now - Stranger Danger

This video has great information and was found because the note below went out to Newton Public Schools last week, so we're having these discussions and re-watching a favorite DVD that's great for teaching kids about Stranger Danger from Mr. Walsh and his crew called Stranger Safety with Safeside Super Chick!!!....http://www.thesafeside.com/ Check it out!

We have received reports of two incidents of students being approached by strangers. The first was an elementary student who was approached yesterday (Monday) afternoon by a white male, 30 to 40 years of age, with short blonde hair, described as a military cut. He was driving a newer, gray 4-door car. He told the boy he was looking for a puppy and the boy ran from the area and the man drove away.

The second incident happened this morning (Tuesday) and involved a high school student. The student was approached by an older man with white hair and beard, driving an older, white, 4-door car. The man asked if she wanted a ride and she refused and continued walking. The man followed her until she reached the school and then drove away.

If you have any information about either of these incidents, please contact the Newton Police Department.


And pray for the safety of our children.
Thanks.
