Boston Police are investigating what they’re calling an “attempted abduction” outside the Dudley Street Neighborhood Charter School in Roxbury on Thursday morning. According to a police report, a female student was playing on the playground during morning recess when a light-skinned man with hazel eyes in a ski mask spoke to her from a gray, scratched-up minivan. She told police he offered her money and asked her to come in the van.  When she screamed, school administrators responded and the man drove away. The incident happened at the intersection of Shirley and Dudley Streets. “This morning, an individual unknown to the school community attempted to engage with a student who was in the recess yard,” an email sent to parents from the school began. Several parents showed up to school early to pick up their kids due to safety concerns after receiving the email. “They said there was nothing to worry about,” one mother said. “They are trying to make it sound like a very small incident. But child abduction is a very big incident.”
