Police in Mountlake Terrace are warning the public about a man who grabbed two girls inappropriately near the high school.
The department said they’ve gotten multiple calls about the man along 44th Avenue, stretching from 212th to the county line.
According to police, the man approaches young girls, asks for directions to a grocery store, and then asks for a hug.
He’s described as a Hispanic male in his 30s, a little heavier set, with short buzzed hair, wearing a blue shirt and khaki shorts.
“We have yet to be able to contact or ID him yet. The high school is aware and is working on putting out information for the students to be aware,” police shared.
If anyone has any information that may help, or has a run-in with this man, call 911.
