Redcliff RCMP release sketch after man approached girl, 12, near school

Police are asking the public for help identifying a man who approached a child at a park beside I.F. Cox School in July.

Why it matters

The appeal for public help comes amid concern for child safety near a local school in Redcliff.

Redcliff RCMP are investigating after a man approached a 12-year-old girl at a park near I.F. Cox School on July 11 at about 9:15 p.m. The park is located at 339 3 St. SE in Redcliff.

According to police, the man asked the girl if she wanted to go for a ride in his vehicle. She did not get into the vehicle and was not harmed.

RCMP describe the suspect as a man in his 30s with a medium complexion, a slightly overweight build, short black hair, a clean-shaven, oval-shaped face and what is believed to be an East Indian accent. He was wearing an all-black work uniform with blue accents.

Police have released a composite sketch of the man and are asking anyone who recognizes him or has information about the incident to contact Redcliff RCMP at 403-548-2222.
