CHICAGO — A man tried to lure a 13-year-old boy to his car Sunday in North Center, police said.
At 1:24 p.m., the boy was jogging in the 3000 block of North Leavitt Street when a man outside a car asked the boy for help with his car, according to a Chicago Police community alert. The man motioned the boy over to his car.
The boy was afraid and ran away, police said.
