A man driving a black Jeep is being sought in Northern California after authorities say he stalked a group of girls leaving school on Friday.
Police were called at 4:30 p.m. on Friday about a strange vehicle that was seen following children leaving school in Santa Rosa.
Multiple callers reported seeing a White adult male driving a black Jeep near Lemur Street and Providence Court, police said.
According to witnesses, the driver of the suspicious vehicle was driving slowly next to the girls, at times even reversing against traffic to stay close to the girls’ route.
The vehicle, a black 2008 Jeep Cherokee 4-door, had body damage to the left rear quarter panel, police said.
Police warned that the incident serves as a reminder for parents to speak to their children about safety and “stranger danger.”
Authorities asked anyone with information about the incident to call the police tip line at 707-543-3595.
