A 14 year old Dover High School student reported that she was walking to school eastbound on W. Canal Rd. She reported the dark blue pickup drove eastbound passed her. The pickup pulled over onto the shoulder of the road in front of the Dover Township Municipal building and stopped for several seconds. The truck then pulled into the municipal building parking lot and parked facing W. Canal Rd.
The teenager reported that as she walked by the location the lone male operator of the vehicle yelled out for her to come over to the truck. The teen continued walking eastbound. The pickup truck then pulled from the parking spot to the exit of the parking lot and was now behind the teen.
