An 11-year-old girl ran away from a man in a white commercial van who attempted to abduct her from a Melbourne street.
The man pulled up in the van, which had no windows, alongside the girl as she was walking along Francis St in Yarraville, an inner west Melbourne suburb, at about 3.25pm on Monday last week.
Police have obtained security camera footage of a suspect van in the area soon after the September 8 incident which was being driven erratically.
Detective Senior Constable Brendan O’Mahoney said the driver repeatedly asked the girl to get in the van when she became scared and ran home to alert her parents.
