Police remind parents to talk to kids about strangers and personal safety

Huron OPP are reminding parents to talk to their kids about stranger danger.

Two kids, ages seven and nine, were playing at the Egmondville Park on Sunday when a dark-coloured minivan -- similar to a Dodge Caravan -- pulled alongside them. A woman in the passenger seat asked if they wanted to go for a ride.

The children declined and biked home where they reported what happened to an adult.

A man was driving the minivan.

Investigators would like to speak to anyone who may be able to identify the two adults in the van.
