Teen Resists Abduction Attempt in Melbourne Suburb
Hume Crime Investigation Unit detectives are investigating an attempted child abduction in Tullamarine. Around 5:45 PM on Wednesday, November 27, a man driving a white van approached a 14-year-old girl walking along Spring Street, urging her to get into the vehicle.
The girl refused and fled to a nearby park where others were present. The suspect, described as Middle Eastern in appearance, around 50 years old, with a thick accent, drove west on Spring Street before performing a U-turn onto Broadmeadows Road.
Upon reaching home, the girl informed her mother, who alerted the police. Investigators have released images and vision of a white van believed to be linked to the case and are seeking public assistance.
