Here is a Stranger Danger notice sent out from Humble ISD about an incident that occurred near Whispering Pines Elementary School.

"Dear Whispering Pines Elementary Families,
 
There has been a stranger danger incident reported in our neighborhood. A teacher walking a student home Monday afternoon spotted a man wearing a hoodie in a red, rusty car following them. The teacher accompanied the student on her walk home out of caution after the student mentioned a previous incident involving the same car. The teacher said the car followed them from the corner of Wells Mark and Crestline to the intersection of Crestline and Beckett Ridge. The man circled the street two times and stopped to get out of the car at a home. The teacher tried to take a photo of the car, but the man quickly jumped in the car and drove away. The man is described as heavy set, white or Hispanic, and was wearing dark clothing. Humble ISD Police created a report and have increased patrols in the area.
 
This is a good opportunity to remind families about the following stranger danger safety tips at home:
If anything unusual occurs, tell an adult immediately. Parents and teachers need to know what happened right away.
Walk or bike to and from school in groups.
Never talk to strangers or accept rides from them.
Arrange for immediate access to neighbors and other trusted adults who could answer questions or be contacted in an emergency.
Tour the neighborhood with your child to identify safe and dangerous circumstances.
Never get into a car, enter a home, look for a lost pet, or accept candy or toys from an adult, unless your parents know what you are doing and have given you their permission first.
Please report any concerns to the Harris County Sheriff's Office at 713-221-6000 or Humble ISD Police at 281-641-7900.
 
Sincerely,
 
Wendy Anaya
Principal"

Please, please learn what different vehicles look like and teach your children. The need to know about makes and models as there are millions of red, white, black cars out there, but only thousands of each make and model. Also teach them how to read and memorize a license plate and that they need to note the state on it as well.

Wow, I think I saw this car yesterday. He took a pic of my kids then waved, and I was like WTF?! Really wish I had my phone on me, or at least got a better look at the plates. However, I did get a pretty good look at the man. This happened near AHS. He's white, grey-haired, heavy set, and had a walker in the backseat of his car. I need to call the police. Y'all be careful out there!
 
Really wish I could've gotten the license plate.

eighteen : What kind of car was it?
 
@chasinghosts : I'm not 100% positive. Definitely red, faded, like he parks outside, maybe an older corolla?! I didn't notice any rust on passenger side, so maybe it's on the driver side?! Really beating myself up for not paying closer attention to the vehicle. Him taking a picture really stunned me. I did get a good look at him though, just not the vehicle or plates😢 The inside of the car was light brown/beige and he had a walker in the back seat. It's a 4 door sedan.
 
This color red.

Another tip I remember when I was a kid was to not go home if you are alone at home. Go to a neighbors house where someone you know is home. You don't want these people to #1 know where you live and #2 find their way into your home when the child is there alone.
This happened to me. Scared me pretty bad and I went straight to my friends house because I knew her mom would be home.

For years I was always a safe house....if a kid had to go home alone or felt unsafe they were welcome to come to mine. If you have kids in school you need to find a stay at home mom that your kids can go to (or grand mom) It helps you as a parent to know there are safe houses.
