Northville police are investigating a reported case of stranger danger. Police say a ten-year-old boy from the Ammerman Elementary School told them he was walking home near Eight Mile and Center on Friday afternoon when a man drove up and offered him a ride home. The boy said he told the man no thank you and ran behind a home and watched the man then drive away. The student described the driver as a man of Indian accent and about 35-40 years old. He said the man was driving a black, four-door sedan that might have been a Volkswagen model.
