Hey, everybody. Welcome back to Crime Weekly News. I'm Derek Lavasar. And as of right now, whether you're listening or watching this, Stephanie and I are, well, I'm on my way to Vegas. Stephanie will be leaving in the morning. And so we're excited about that. We're hoping to see some of you there. But today we're talking about something that's not good news and something that everyone should be concerned about because it's not just this

specific area, it's anywhere. It can happen anywhere in the country and anybody who has children

out there, you definitely want to know this story. So Thursday, May 14th, a person dressed in a pink

panther costume was spotted in several locations around the old Greenwich area of Fredericksburg, Virginia.

This person reportedly was following a group of children who had gotten off a school bus,

and police are now asking for the public's help to find this potential child stalker.

And listen, I just gave you the short version.

I actually stumbled on this on Instagram.

Somebody else was talking about it. I didn't hear about it anywhere else. And then I sent the link once I started researching it to Stephanie. Did you already know about it, Stephanie? Or was it? No. Okay. See, that's a problem. But when you sent it to me and I looked into it, it reminded me of something else, which we're going to talk about. You said that. And by the way, if you're if you're not watching on video right now, you need to go over there and check it out because there's this eerie photo of this person. I'm assuming it's a guy. Yeah, they think it's a guy. But they're standing there in this costume and there was like a passerby who was smart enough to take a photo of it and the the person in

the pink panther costume is just like staring at him it looks like a ton of people straight out of a

horror movie yeah there's a lot of photos and they're like local Facebook pages and stuff because they

kept seeing them and there's video too there's video too so people should definitely check that out

because you can see his his his gate, his walk. These

are all things that could help identify him. So the reports say that the pink predator ominously

trailed a group of terrified youngsters fresh off the school bus in Fredericksburg. This was around

4.30 p.m. on May 14th. And then this horrifying video shows him prowling along the grassy roadside near the

Lafayette Boulevard corridor.

Yes.

So this was happening.

And then a local resident posted on Facebook, quote, this man stared down my son in one

of the older neighbors from across the road.

That's when this picture was snapped, end quote.
