Police are investigating an incident in which a male in a black car allegedly made a lewd comment to a young female on Washington Street Tuesday afternoon.

Police describe the man as a white male in his late teens or early 20s a black car with two white vertical stripes over each wheel well. The incident occurred at about 2:50 p.m.

Detective Scott Young from the Brewer Police Department is seeking to speak with this individual and/or owner of the vehicle.

Police say there was no force used, and evidence suggests this was not an attempted abduction, as has been rumored.

After speaking with the involved parties and canvassing the area, police say they are confident that there is no elevated safety risk present in the community.

If anyone is aware of a vehicle fitting this description, they are asked to call the Brewer Police Department at 989-7001.
