Police say the suspects asked the girl to get into the vehicle for “treats.”
She ran away to a nearby Coquitlam bylaw officer, and the suspects fled the scene.
The two women are described as middle-aged, with one having ginger-coloured hair. The vehicle is described as a four-door grey sedan, with scratches along the passenger side.
Mounties are asking anyone who may have witnessed the incident, or may have seen the car in the area of Hockaday Street and Robson Drive between 3 and 3:30 p.m. to contact Coquitlam RCMP at 604-945-1550, with file number 2023-11886.
