Police are warning residents of an attempted child luring Wednesday in the Norwood Park neighborhood on the North Side.

A 12-year-old girl was walking home from school when a man pulled up beside her and called her over to his car about 2:58 p.m. in the 7200 block of West Palatine, Chicago Police said.

The man was described as a white man in his 60s with a European accent wearing a baseball cap and black sweatshirt, police said.

The minivan had a dent and rust damage on the rear passenger side, police said.
