Ship Bottom police are searching for a woman suspected of trying to abduct two preteens on the borough's beachfront in the middle of Monday afternoon.
The suspect is described as being in her 30s, 5'6" to 5'8", medium build, with short curly brown hair possibly configured in a bun shape. She was seen wearing bright red lipstick, a bright red short-sleeved shirt and tan Capri pants.
Police say the woman struck up a conversation they describe as "rude and provocative" with a six-year-old boy and a 10-year-old girl at the 15th Street beach entrance around 2:00 in the afternoon. Police say the girl ran, but the boy had to free himself from her grip on his arm before he could run, at which point they reported the incident to their parents.
Investigators seek witnesses who may have information that can help their probe. Reach Ship Bottom Police 609-494-3055. Sergeant Jim Butler's extension is 115. Detective M. Nash's extension is 110.
