Parents and kids are both on alert in Mississauga after a series of attempted attacks on children has police believing the same man may be at work in all of them. The incidents happened in the Winston Churchill and Derry Road area.
In one case, a man exposed himself to students from Meadowvale Secondary School. In two more, young girls were followed by a suspect from the Meadowvale Town Centre as they walked to school in the morning. In all cases, the kids did the right thing by running away and immediately reporting what happened to school staff. They, in turn, called Peel Police.
Cops are advising parents to streetproof their kids and make sure they know what to do in the event a stranger approaches them – before it happens.
