'Suspicious' Motorist Takes Picture Of 2 Students: Guilford PD

GUILFORD, CT — The Guilford Police Department is investigating the report of a suspicious activity which occurred around 3pm Thursday. Two middle school students said they got off the bus in the area of Saw Mill Road and began walking home when they saw a small black sedan with a white piece of paper taped to the rear window, possibly a temporary registration plate, driving by them slowly, police said.

The vehicle was being driven by a black male wearing a grey hooded sweatshirt, police said. The vehicle then turned around in a driveway and drove by the students a second time, police said. This time, the male rolled down the window and took photographs of the students, police said.

The driver did not attempt to speak with the students before driving off towards Hubbard Road, police said. The two walked home and told their parents before calling the police, police said. Officers immediately responded to the area but were unable to locate the suspicious vehicle, police said.

The bus company, schools and area agencies were notified. There is no further information being released on this investigation at this time, police said. Extra patrols will be in place during pick up and drop off times to ensure the safety of our students, police said.
