Middleborough police are looking for two men who attempted to abduct two children Thursday evening.
Two elementary school girls were approached by two men in a black truck with tinted windows near Elm and Courtland Streets, police said in a statement.
When the men asked the girls to go with them, the children ran to a nearby house and the truck drove away, police said.
The children described the driver as having a long beard, gray hair, and a silver-capped tooth, with a ring on his right middle finger that looked like an eagle.
The truck was described as a black extended-cab truck, with key scratches on the driver’s side, tinted windows, and two white bumper stickers on the rear bumper.
