Whittier PD Seeks Possible Child Predators

Whittier - On Wednesday January 14th at 3:30pm, two 12 year old boys were walking to the East Whittier Library when they were approached by a vehicle driven by a white male in his 30's, approximately 5'9" tall, 220 pounds, wearing an orange short sleeve t-shirt and blue jeans. His car was described as a dark red sedan. Approaching the boys he asked them if they wanted a hamburger to which they replied "No", and continued to walk towards the library. As the boys continued to walk, the driver and a passenger, also described as a White male in his 30's, approximately 6'0 tall, 180 pounds, with black hair and a light mustache, wearing a brown t-shirt and dark blue jeans, exited the car and once again approached them. The driver held out a Carl's Jr. bag and again offered the boys a hamburger which was rejected before the boys ran into the library to call the police. The driver and passenger of the sedan were unfamiliar to both children, and it is unknown which direction the vehicle left the parking lot.


The Whittier Police Department is investigating the incident and seeking assistance from anyone with additional information. Please call the Whittier Police Department at 562-945-8250.
