Tumwater police are asking residents to be on the lookout for a red van that may be connected to a Wednesday morning attempted luring near Tumwater High School.

A female student had been running for a physical education class about 9 a.m. when a driver in a red work van blocked her path, according to police Sgt. Jen Kolb. The girl reported that the man asked her to help him find his birth certificate. The girl declined and ran away.

The incident occurred on Israel Road, near the state Department of Health building, Kolb said.
