Overly Aggressive Bill Collector Mistaken for Possible Child Abductor

March 2, 2004 — Police in Gregory, TX are saying what appeared to be an attempted child abduction last week was in reality a case of overly agressive bill collection.

The episode began last Thursday, when a 4th grader at Stephen F. Austin Elementary school told school officals of an approach by a stranger.

The next day, school adminstrators sent a letter to parents advising them of a possible abduction attempt and to keep a close watch on their children.

A Corpus Christi, TX television station, KRIS-TV, ran a story on the possible abduction attempt. The station says that this story allowed police to contact the man that approached the student.

Police are now describing that man as an overly aggressive bill collector who did not intend to scare or harm the child. They were also able to corroborate his story with the manager of the collection agency.

The Gregory police chief was unavailable when contacted by CollectionIndustry.com.
