CHESAPEAKE, Va. - Police officers are on patrol in Chesapeake's Portlock neighborhood after a 17-year-old girl reported a half naked man approached her.
Officers went to the neighborhood off of Bainbridge and Portlock Roads Wednesday evening.
Diana Kennedy is the teen's mother. She told WAVY.com a man in a silver mustang followed her daughter after she got off the school bus.
Kennedy explained, "She said when he got up in front of her where she could see the front of the car, she looked over to see who it was or what he was doing. And when she looked over he had the window rolled down and he had himself exposed...She said that he was about six inches away from her body when she was walking, and she said, 'Mom when I looked over, he was there with no pants on. From his waste down he had nothing on.'"
Kennedy said her daughter kept going and her anxiety grew.
"She proceeded to walk faster and faster. And the faster she would go, the faster he would speed up to keep up with her," she said.
The teen ran to safety. Though police have canvassed the neighborhood, they've made no arrests. The teen's dad and another concerned parent are checking out the neighborhood,
too.
Carlton Gilchrist, a neighbor told WAVY.com they tried to track down a silver mustang in the neighborhood.
"[Her parents] went one way, I went the other to try to find out who the perpetrator was. I'm just concerned you know, 'cause it's too close to my house," Gilchrist said.
They were not able to find the car. Gilchrist said as the father of an 8-year-old daughter he's nervous.
"It happened right here at the bus stop. My daughter catches the bus here too, so I was concerned about that," he explained.
Until the person is identified, parents say they won't rest. It seems the Kennedy's daughter won't either.
"She cried most of the evening. She also made me take blankets and put them over the curtains in my house to assure that he wasn't stalking her, or following her to see in the house that she was in there," Kennedy said.
Diana Kennedy said she hopes parents throughout her neighborhood take extra steps to protect their kids.
She said it's sad that her 17-year-old daughter can't be comfortable walking from her bus stop to her front door.
Gilchrist's daughter pulled out her bicycle, like she does so many days after school, her dad said, "Oh no Sweetie. Today is not a bike riding day."
Please give me a break, this is full of shit.
First point, if she is in front of the car, she wou;dn't be able to see in below the dash broad, two, a 17 yo, please, I'm sure she has seen and touch and play with her boyfriends, stick many times. I could under stand if this was a younger child, but a damn 17 yo, please.
However I love the comments

This is a totally bogus story. I live right here on the corner and I was just in my back yard which runs parallel to the street right before that school bus dropped her daughter off. There was no silver mustang and there was no man. I personally know this woman who is mentally unstable and she has coerced her daughter into saying these things because she craves attention. She also used to claim that every man who came into contact with her sexually harrassed her. These are false statements. There was absolutely no man in a silver mustang!!!!!!!!!life coach had this to say
It is common knowledge that activity is a common practice mating ritual in Portlock and Deep Creek. Must be a new law against it or something?
