The message below has been posted to the ConverseHeights.org News page:

Neighbors,

Unfortunately another incident has been reported involving children walking in Converse Heights. These girls were approached by a stranger who attempted to speak to them. They were frightened and ran off. No one has been harmed in any way. However, Spartanburg police have requested that we are all alert to any suspicious behavior or vehicles in the area.

Should you see anything that raises your suspicions, do your best to obtain a description of the individual/s and try to obtain the tag number of the vehicle. Then immediately call 911 to relay this information. Your description of the individual and his vehicle may not be the same as those reported in previous incidents.

Thank you,
Anne Leger, Chair
