As of Thursday, the sheriff\u2019s department had received information regarding an incident where a man in a dark colored SUV allegedly attempted to lure a child into his vehicle. Deputies have also learned of two other incidents, which all were reported by residents in the Emlyn community, according to a sheriff\u2019s department release. \u201cOut of an abundance of caution, parents in that area should be vigilant and are asked to report suspicious activity, whether observed or learned of from their children,\u201d Sheriff Colan Harrell wrote on the department\u2019s Facebook page. \u201cIf possible, please safely attempt to obtain a license plate number or other information that may help further identify a vehicle engaging in such activity. Regardless of where you live, this is a reminder for all parents to speak with children about safe practices concerning strangers.\u201d Local law enforcement is continuing to investigate the incidents. When further information is available, it will be released, according to the sheriff\u2019s department release. To report suspicious activity, please contact Whitley County E911 at (606) 549-6017. In case of an emergency, dial 911."}
