Monday night, Prescott Valley Police was notified of a possible abduction attempt of two young children on East Sommer Drive near North Zircon Drive. Officials say a family was out for a bike ride when one of the kids had a problem with their bike. The mother directed the two older children to continue riding home. During the ride, one of the kids saw a red station wagon following her and her brother. The man slowed and asked them if they needed a ride and asked questions about their parents; the children continued to ride home. The vehicle sped past, stopped and the man told them to get in. They ignored his demand and again the man stopped, but this time he blocked the road and told the kids to get in his car. The children had to ride into a ditch to get around him. The girl told officials this happened about a month ago with the same man near American Legion Park on East Yavapai Road. The man was described as wearing a black baseball cap, sunglasses, and an Adidas shirt. The vehicle was described as a red station wagon with a sticker on the back window. If you have any information about the man or his vehicle, contact the department or Yavapai Silent Witness.
