ORIGINAL RELEASE:
The Halton Regional Police Service (HRPS) is issuing a public safety warning in relation to an incident that took place in southeast Oakville.
At approximately 2:15 pm on Sunday, May 30, 2021, a female was walking in the area of Morrison Heights Drive and Linbrook Road in Oakville. A silver Honda Civic pulled up and the male driver engaged her in conversation from within his vehicle. He asked for directions, asked personal questions and then offered the female a ride. When the victim declined, the male driver became increasingly verbally aggressive and repeatedly demanded that she get into his car. The victim became fearful for her personal safety and left the area on foot without further incident. No physical threat was made by the male driver, and no weapon(s) were observed.
A thorough investigation has been undertaken by the 2 District Criminal Investigations Bureau, including a canvas of the local area, obtaining victim/witness statements and collecting and analyzing CCTV footage. Through the course of the investigation, a description of the male and description of the vehicle he was driving at the time were obtained.
