A child is unhurt after what police in Abbotsford, B.C., describe as a possible attempted abduction.
A statement from Const. Jody Thomas says an unknown man tried to pull the youngster from a ground floor bedroom window of a home on Abbotsford's east side.
It happened just before 9 p.m. Monday.
The child managed to break free and the man could not be found when police arrived.
The statement says the preliminary details are being released as a precaution and this case is a reminder that windows and doors should always be locked.
Detectives are checking surveillance cameras in the neighbourhood and want to speak to anyone who might have seen something suspicious.
