(STMW) -- Police are searching for a man who asked a girl if she wanted to make some money while she was walking Sunday afternoon in the East Garfield Park neighborhood on the West Side.
The girl was walking about 1:50 p.m. in the 1400 block of South Christiana Street when the man pulled his vehicle over to speak to her, according to a community alert from Chicago Police.
