A boy walking near Horace Mann School at 8 a.m. said a man came up behind him and put his hand over his mouth. The boy was able to elbow the man and ran home. Hours later, the boy was on the playground behind the school when he noticed the man again and ran home to tell his mother, who called police.
The boy said the culprit is approximately 35 years old, white with dark brown hair down to his shoulders and a beard covering the throat. The suspicious man was wearing a white tank top with a black shirt over it, black pants with a black belt with fake bullets all around it and black Air Jordan sneakers.
The mother said she did not report the incident in the morning because her son had more details after seeing the man the second time. Police checked the Horace Mann School area but did not see the man.
