Comox Valley RCMP are investigating after a report of a suspicious male in Comox who approached several school aged children, asking them questions of a personal nature.

The man was quickly identified thanks to quick reporting and what the RCMP says are valuable partnerships within our community.

Constable Monika Terragni says it's an opportunity for caregivers to talk to their children about strangers they may encounter when they’re out in the community on their own.  

In this case, police say while the behaviour exhibited by the man is concerning, there is no evidence at this time to indicate he has committed a criminal offence. They continue to investigate and ask for anyone with information to give them a call.

Police say it is important for students and parents to report any suspicious activities immediately to the RCMP.
