Port PD: Teens Attempt to Lure Girls with Candy, Later Claim it was a Joke

A roundup of recent activity from the police blotter also includes vandalism of city planters, vandalism to a vehicle in the marina parking lot and loud noises.

It seems no matter how the world changes, it will always be a good idea to teach kids never to take candy from a stranger. Police responded to the Columbia Park area at 4:27 p.m. Friday after two 10-year-old girls walking home said they were approached by two males in a van. The 16-year-old Belgium boy and the 15-year-old Port boy had approached the girls while in their van, asking if they wanted some candy. The boys admitted to saying this statement, saying they were joking and confessing that it was probably a bad idea to make comments like this. The boys were issued citations for disorderly conduct. They might want to work on their sense of humor. More from the reports:
