Men try to lure Cherokee girl with promise of puppy
WOODSTOCK, Ga. -- Extra patrols in Cherokee County are looking for two men who tried to lure a girl into their truck with the promise of a puppy.
Cherokee County Sheriff's deputies responded to the Eagle Watch subdivision Monday evening. A 12-year-old girl told deputies two white men driving an older model green Ford F-150 with a camper shell approached her.
The girl was riding her scooter to the playground when the truck pulled up near her and asked her if she wanted a puppy. She was able to see a puppy inside the truck.
She told them men she didn't want the puppy. After that, she told investigators one man said, "If you get in the truck I will give you a puppy." She again said no and rode away.
