On Tuesday of last week around 6:50 a.m., Round Lake police were called for two different reports of attempted luring of children on MacGillis Lane between Whispering Oaks and Treehouse lanes.

The suspect is described as a Hispanic or Asian male standing about 5 feet 2 inches tall, with a slender or skinny build, and short facial hair on his chin. He spoke with a slight Spanish-sounding accent, victims told police.

The suspect was last seen wearing a dark or black hooded sweatshirt with the hood up, and blue jeans.
