PEMBROKE PINES, FLA. (WSVN) - A man who, authorities said, approached a juvenile walking toward his school bus stop in and continued to follow him on a scooter triggered a police investigation in Pembroke Pines.

According to Pembroke Pines Police, the incident took place along the 100 block of Northwest 108th Terrace, in front of the Camden Portofino Clubhouse, Friday, at around 7:15 a.m.

Investigators said the man riding the scooter trailed the student and tried to strike up a conversation. Officials said the subject was using a scooter due to a leg injury.

The juvenile was eventually able to wave down a passing driver who allowed him to wait inside her vehicle until the school bus arrived. The scooter rider then left the area in an unknown direction and was not seen again.

Saturday night, police said they had identified the subject but concluded he did not pose a threat to the juvenile.
