Hoover police look for man who tried to lure boys into car

Hoover, AL

Hoover police are looking for a man who this morning reportedly told two boys to get into his car.

The incident happened about 9:20 a.m. on Scout Ridge Drive, said Capt. Gregg Rector.

The boys, ages 10 and 13, were riding their bikes when a black Audi pulled up and the driver told them to get inside, Rector said.

"They were smart enough to flee," Rector said.

The man, a white male, 40 to 50 years old with brown, graying hair, drove away. Police are still patrolling the area, Rector said.

"We don't know what his intentions were but we are going to investigate and assume his intentions were not good," Rector said.
