Posted

Huron Township Police are on the lookout for a man who recently approached a young girl at her house.

Eleven-year-old Macy Freeman tells us the man was wearing a black mask that covered only the top half of his face.

She tells us the man asked for someone who wasn't there and then asked the girl for her name, before trying to enter the house.

Freeman says she immediately locked the front door and the rest of the doors at the house, before shutting the blinds.

"He wore a black mask that came down to here. I didn't want him robbing me, kidnapping me, or even killing me," Macy told 7 Action News.

Chief Everette Robbins, who's department is taking this seriously, says there's been no other reports of similar cases, but is urging residents to be on alert.

We're told the suspect, considered a white man, was driving an older model blue Cadillac.
