The Brooklyn school district is telling people to be aware of their surroundings after a driver approached a high school student and told them to get in his car Friday morning.
School officials said the student was walking in the area of Pleasant Lane when a car pulled up and told them to get there.
The student explained the incident to his parents and the school. Connecticut State Police were contacted and given a description based on the student’s report.
Parents and guardians are advised to talk to their children and make them aware of these risks.
“We must always be aware of our surroundings, pay attention and report it to the police,” the school district said in a statement.
