Advisory

Suspicious Vehicle in the area of 8 Mile and Harper

Harper Woods police officers responded to a home in the area of Hollywood and Harper on a report of a suspicious vehicle that had approached two small children on 6/5/22. The father advised officers that a white SUV slowed in front of his home and asked his 7 and 4 year old if they "wanted some candy". The children said no, and the vehicle drove away. The occupants of the vehicle were described as an African American 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 also approached by the occupants of 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. 

Please remind your young children not to interact with strangers. Report any further suspicious activity to the Harper Woods Police Department.
