Thompson RCMP received a report of a suspicious vehicle driven by a Caucasian man in his 60s with grey hair Sept. 21. 

The vehicle had been seen Monday morning in the Burntwood area of Thompson near École La Voie du Nord.

A post in a Thompson Facebook group said the driver of the vehicle, which looked like a small white bus, approached children and tried luring them into the vehicle with toys and was circling the school again in the afternoon.

RCMP ask anyone with information on the vehicle or with surveillance or cell phone video that could assist in identifying it to call the Thompson detachment at 204-677-6909 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-8477. Tips can also be submitted online at www.manitobacrimestoppers.com.
