The Torrance Unified School District sent this email today to West High School students' homes. I'm looking into it.

A student was walking to school at 8:25 am on Henrietta & Del Amo Blvd. A man grabbed her arm and asked her what she was doing this weekend.

She tried to pull away. He grabbed her arm tighter and as she pulled away he pulled her towards his car. She pulled away and ran to school.

The man walked in the opposite direction and then turned back and got in his car and drove away. The man was wearing a blue/black suit with a red tie. He was about 5'8" or 5'9" or taller. He had light skin, dirty blonde hair and a dark blue/black/grayish four door compact car.

He's seen it all - the missing model who turned up dead in the desert, the wives found dead in trunks, the high-school coaches who get a little too close to their players. He drives his young colleagues nuts with his "I remember when" stories. He welcomes your tips and observations about the present, and you can mix in a little Lakers basketball talk if you like.
