A suspect has been arrested in the attempted luring of two girls on Cooper Landing Road in Cherry Hill. Surveillance video shows the man at a WaWa before asking the girls if they needed a ride, police say.
A New Jersey Man has been identified and charged in an attempted luring and child endangerment incident.
Brian M. Ayers of Roebling, New Jersey, was arrested after police investigated an incident that occurred at a Wawa in Cherry Hill.
Police say two girls were at the Wawa when they noticed Ayers watching them. They explained to police they were uncomfortable with his presence and waited for him to leave before making their purchases.
They then proceeded to walk about a mile away from the Wawa, in the South Lincoln and Garfield Avenue area, when Ayers allegedly pulled alongside the curb and offered them a ride home. Investigators say both girls ran from Ayers and told an adult, who alerted police.
Police say anonymous tips led them to Ayers.
Ayers, 56, is charged with second degree attempted child luring and third degree child endangerment. He was arrested without incident and was placed in Camden County Jail.
