At around 3:00pm on Monday, police say a man approached a 10-year-old boy in the Scala and Portobello area.
He apparently drove up in a black sedan and asked if the boy wanted candy or ice cream.
The child then ran away.
The man is described as black or dark skinned, English speaking, and about 20 to 30-years-old.
