Chatham-Kent police are debunking rumours of an attempted abduction in Chatham.
A post to the Facebook “Chatham Swappers Rant and Rave,” group outlined an attempted child abduction at a St. Clair St. business.
Like a lot of things posted on Facebook, it isn’t the least bit accurate and police say they are not investigating or in fact ever receive any such complaint.
They say it was simply a rumour, and that like anything posted on social media, discretion should be used.
The police service also wants to remind people that purposely misleading police could lead to a public mischief charge.
