WINDSOR, Calif. (KRON) — Windsor police are investigating an apparent attempt to kidnap a 14-year-old girl who was riding her scooter home from school Wednesday, according to a social media post from Windsor PD. Officers received the call at around 2:42 p.m. Wednesday from a parent reporting that their child was confronted by two men wearing ski masks who jumped out of a white van in the Vintage Green neighborhood.

The incident reportedly occurred around 2:15 p.m. as the girl was riding her scooter home from school.

Windsor Police deputies were dispatched to the area to try and locate the white van. However, they were unable to locate it. Deputies contacted the girl’s parents and interviewed her while the search was being conducted.

The girl told deputies she left school around 2:10 p.m. on her scooter. She observed the white van in the area of Windsor Road and Vintage Greens Drive. As she turned left onto Vintage Greens, she said the van passed her and made a U-turn.

She continued to ride past the van when two men wearing all black clothing and ski masks jumped out of the van. The girl told deputies she became scared and fled on her scooter, according to the social media post. She said she believed she was being chased and described a “huffing” sound from behind her.

After turning onto a side street, she turned back around and saw no one behind her. The girl arrived home safely and reported the incident to her mother.
