Airdrie RCMP need your help to identify a man who tried to convince a High School student to enter his truck.

Last Thursday (October 18th) at around 8:15 pm, a 14 year old male was walking home from football practice at Allen Street and Alder Crescent when he was approached by a man in a red pick up truck.

The man started talking to the youth and eventually asked him to get into his vehicle.

The young man refused and fled the area.

Police are now searching for a newer red truck with a box cover that was believed to have a dent and scratch on the driver's side door.

The man driving the truck is described as Caucasian between 40 and 60 years old with a deep voice.

He was wearing blue clothing with a short sleeved shirt and has a scar on his left forearm.

If you have any information regarding this incident, you're asked to contact the Airdrie RCMP.
