Abduction scare in Sylvan Lake a ‘non-event,’ according to RCMP
A Sylvan Lake mother is just thankful her daughter is safe after what she believes was an attempted abduction.
Spencer Rose says she was inside her house just after 5 p.m. on Monday (May 14) while her nine-year-old daughter was playing in the front yard.
That’s when two people dressed in black – one pushing the other in a wheelchair – approached the girl and, according to Rose, asked her if she would go with them to a “special place downtown” or to a “different town.”
The girl told them no and ran inside to tell her mom. Rose then obtained surveillance footage from a neighbour and what they saw perplexed them both.
