DISGUSTING: Man Propositions Little Girl In Front Of Mom


It’s a pretty safe assumption that child molesters are not the highest class of human being. But when a creepy old guy tried to proposition a 4-year-old girl in Bangor, Michigan, he hit a new low.

A Mom and her little girl were waiting at the bus stop, according to a report on Channel 3 News. The man approached and the woman asked if him if he was lost, which may say something about his appearance.  He answered that he was just “out cruising around,” and asked the woman if she was an “old married lady.”

Can you imagine how she must have reacted? She told the police that she laughed it off, but then the situation got even worse.

According to the mother, who did not want to be identified for obvious reasons, the man

“Looked me dead in the eye and asked, can I do something to your daughter?”

The mother didn’t react at first.  She couldn’t quite believe what she had heard, so she simply stood there for a second.  The man repeated his question.

That’s when the woman reacted and told the guy to get lost.  She says that she was shaking and crying, and yelling at him.

“I then told him he had to go, get out of here, ‘whats wrong with you?’ He sat in his car staring at us and didn’t say anything, that’s what made it creepy, he never said anything else.”

If you ask me, that’s not the only thing that made it beyond creepy. Eventually the man drove away, but the quick thinking mother had taken a picture of his truck, including the license plate.

She reported him to the police, who were able to identify him, interview him and arrest him.

Not a moment too soon, it seems.  Bangor police said that the man’s description fit that of a suspect in a similar incident a year ago.

I shudder to think of how many other similar situations have gone unreported.
