The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department is seeking help from the public in finding a man they think has been involved in “suspicious activity” around school bus stops in the south Charlotte area.
According to CMPD, the incident occurred around 3 p.m. Friday.
Detectives describe the man as a middle-aged, bald, heavy-set Hispanic male. The man has been reported to have driven past school bus stops and engaged in conversations with middle-school aged girls. Also, the man is believed to be driving a light gray sedan and possibly even a Tesla.

Channel 9′s veteran crime reporter Glenn Counts went to south Charlotte to speak with parents about the situation.
Cozzette Duggar is a mother to many boys and said that the situation makes her worry too.
“It’s all the same to me, safety is safety. If somebody is out there, looking for little girls they could be out there looking for little boys, that’s scary,” said Duggar.
CMPD, the Pineville Police Department, and the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools Police Department are all working together in the investigation.
Anyone with information on these instances or the man’s whereabouts is asked to call 911.
