Green van

Green van

The green van is the people or person who attempted abductions in Rye, New York and Greenwich, Connecticut and around Westchester County, New York in late 2004. In these abduction attempts, students at local schools were approached by a man (sometimes with a woman accomplice) and sometimes followed by car. During the months of October to December more than eleven children were approached. About nine of the cases occurred in Rye, while others occurred in such towns as Eastchester, New Rochelle, and Greenwich.

The Rye Police Department Reported:

In October, 2004, the first of a series of incidents was reported in which an elusive male driving a green mini-van or sport utility vehicle, occasionally accompanied by a female, attempted to lure children into his vehicle. This case, which became to be known as the “green van case,” became the focus extensive media coverage and community interest, and consumed the Department’s resources for the remainder of the year. All available resources – patrol, investigative, and support – were brought to bear on this case, and the members of this Department spared no effort in their dedication to it. Although the suspects have not been apprehended, the case remains open as of now.
