HAMILTON — Police are seeking a suspicious person who has been taunting juveniles in the wooded area at
the dead end of Lamont Avenue.
A black male wearing a blue hooded sweatshirt and a white mask over his eyes grabbed a 7-year-old
resident by the arm at approximately 6:15 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 8, according to the Hamilton Police Division.
During an investigation into the incident, another juvenile from the area told police that a black man
wearing a hooded sweatshirt and a red devil mask motioned for him on two different occasions, once in the winter
and again in the spring of this year. The juvenile told police he ran from the area on both occasions but did
not report either incident to a parent or to the police.
Anyone having witnessed suspicious activity in the area or that has information regarding this incident
is asked to contact Detective Salvatore Vaccaro of the Hamilton Police Division’s Criminal Investigations
Section at 609-689-5825 or the Hamilton Police Crime Tip Hotline at 609-581-4008.
