RCMP are looking for two people following an attempted abduction near Cambridge-Narrows.

Mounties said the incident happened on Route 710 in the Henderson Settlement area around 5:15 p.m. Monday.

Two people allegedly approached a child riding a bike and tried to lure them into their vehicle with candy.

Police said the child ran to a neighbouring house, and the vehicle fled toward Cambridge-Narrows.

It is described as a black four-door Subaru, possibly an Outback, with tinted windows, a sunroof and signs of rust on the front passenger bumper.

The passenger is described as a man, possibly in his mid-30s, with a muscular build, goatee with no moustache and curly hair. He was wearing blue sunglasses and a green t-shirt with yellow on it.

The driver is described as a woman with light-coloured shoulder-length curly hair.

Anyone who may have information is asked to contact Sussex RCMP at 506-433-7700 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
