In an update to our earlier reports, the Fremont County Sheriff’s Office, Saturday, said with regard to possible attempted child abduction in Tabor, the man in question has been identified. The case is under investigation and no other information is available at this time. Earlier, authorities said Fremont County Deputies and the Tabor Police Department were looking for a male in connection with a possible attempted child abduction in Tabor.

At around 7:40-p.m., Friday,  deputies were contacted by several juveniles about a suspicious white male that had approached them near the Tabor Library. Witnesses advised the male approached one of the juveniles, advised that he knew their father and he was supposed to drive the juvenile home.  The juveniles fled the area and contacted law enforcement. Deputies were looking for the White Ford Dually pickup with a faded logo and the letters CBS on the driver’s door.  The vehicle was missing the front bumper. The male was described as being heavy-set, in his 40’s or 50’s with a beard and short cropped brown or gray hair.

The vehicle was also seen in the area of both the parks in Tabor and Sidney.
