A LISA Alert when out today concerning the attempted abduction Friday morning of a 16-year-old Lorain girl.

The girl, whose name wasn’t released, was approached by a man in his 40s driving a pickup truck outside Rebman Recreation at 5295 Oberlin Ave., police said.

The teenager was trying to cross the street at 10:32 a.m. Friday when the man stopped his truck and tried to get the girl to go with him, police said.

When that failed, he got out of his truck and walked toward her until she fled.

The victim described the man as white, in his 40s, around 200 pounds, wearing a brown stocking cap and matching brown jacket with a full beard.

The truck was described as an older red truck with a matching cap over the bed. The cap has side windows and the truck might have had an extended cab.
