Albany Police Seek Man Who Asked Girls To Get Into Truck

ALBANY, CA —Albany police are asking for the public's help in identifying a man who allegedly asked two girls to get in his pickup truck earlier this week.

Police said the girls saw the man with a loose dog and tried to help him catch it around 7:30 a.m. Monday.

The girls eventually walked away from the area, only to see the man pull up in a white, full-sized truck with a camper shell in the 900 block of Key Route Boulevard and asked them to "get in".

The girls declined but then saw the suspect again a few minutes later. Police said the suspect said "hi girls" but the girls ran away and contacted a parent.

The suspect is described as a 27- to 32-year-old man with a light complexion, a medium build, straight posture, an unshaven, square-shaped face and short, brown hair. He may have also been wearing blue jeans.

Anyone with information on the case is asked to call Albany police at (510) 525-7300.
