WESTWOOD, N.J. — Another attempted child abduction in New Jersey has police stepping up the search for a suspect.
Drivers in Westwood found themselves at a police roadblock Thursday evening with unsettling news that a child predator is on the loose in their town.
Cops said a man approached the 13-year-old girl in a grey hatchback as she was heading to school on Lafayette Avenue alongside Voorhis Park. He asked the girl to get in his car, police said, but she refused and the man took off.
This latest incident follows an anxious past few weeks with similar attempted luring reports in Bergen County, including Maywood, Oradell, Hackensack, Ridgewood and Fairlawn.
Earlier this week, police said accusations of a man trying to lure two boys in Lyndhurst was a hoax.

Westwood schools have now sent warnings to students and parents about the recent incident involving the junior high student and police in nearby Upper Saddle River have also notified parents and students about the recent lurings in hopes of preventing an incident there.
It isn’t clear yet if any of the attempted lurings are connected.
