Wilmington, NC — Wilmington Police are asking for the public\u2019s help in identifying a man who tried to pick up an eight year old girl from a bus stop, despite not being known by the girl, her parents, or her bus driver.<\/p>\n
Officers responded to the area of 6th and Nixon Streets around 3:30 p.m. on Jan. 9 in reference to a possible attempted kidnapping. At a bus stop preceding the child\u2019s normal drop off location, the suspect asked for her by name. Neither the bus driver nor the bus monitor recognized the man, and asked the girl if she knew him. When she said she did not, the driver did not allow the child to get off the bus until they reached her normal stop and could see the child\u2019s mother.<\/p>\n
The suspect is described as a black male in his mid-twenties with black, curly hair and a mustache. He was wearing a gray t-shirt and dark blue jeans. He was driving a white sedan.<\/p>\n
