Police look for suspicious men who approached boys

Durham Police are looking to identify two suspicious males who approached two young boys on an afternoon in Oshawa.

On May 20, at about 12:25 pm, the two boys were skateboarding in the south parking lot of the shared campus of Durham College and Ontario Tech University, when a white sedan stopped and one of the occupants said something to the young boys. The boys, aged six and nine-years-old, ran away from the vehicle and told their mother who was nearby at the time, police said.

The vehicle was seen on security surveillance leaving the area and failing to stop at a red light at Simcoe Street and Commencement Circle before proceeding northbound on Simcoe Street.

Investigators would like to speak to anyone who may have been in the area at the time or may have witnessed anything suspicious. If you have surveillance footage or dash-cam video of this vehicle, investigators are urging you to contact them.

The driver is described as a Middle Eastern male. The passenger is described as male, Middle Eastern, 30-40 years with a heavy build. The suspect vehicle is described as a white sedan.

Please see the attached photo of the suspicious vehicle.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact Det. Jaciuk of Central West Criminal Investigations Bureau at 1-888-579-1520 ext. 1853.
