Coos County sheriff’s deputies are searching for a man and a silver Honda Prelude following the report of an attempted abduction of a 13-year-old girl on Tuesday.

At about 7:30 p.m., the sheriff’s office received a report of a man who tried to lure the girl into his car near the intersection of Wallace Avenue and Beacon Street in Coos Bay. The girl ran away and the man drove off, a sheriff’s office press release said.

The driver is described as a white man in his 40s, chubby with a white beard. No suspects have been located or identified.

To the World, In HUGE letters on the headlines you have "BREAKING NEWS: LAB BAND DIRECTOR RESIGNS!" Then, close to the bottom of the page in very small print you have typed "Deputies search for attempted abduction of girl" Should that not be the breaking news? I mean come on, we need to know this more than a lab band directer possibly stealing money when we have some creep trying to steal our babies! Priorities please!
