Moraga police issued a warning to parents with children at Joaquin Moraga Intermediate School after a suspicious man offered a student a ride today, Wednesday -- two weeks after the same man was spotted trying to get a child in his car in much the same way.

In Wednesday's incident, a male student was hailed by the driver of a brown pickup truck and asked if he needed a ride home. When the student declined the offer the driver left in the direction of Canyon Road, according to police.
