Strathmore RCMP is investigating a reported child abduction in the southern Alberta town. Police in a community east of Calgary say two men tried to abduct a girl on her way home from school on Tuesday.

Strathmore RCMP say the youth was approached by two men in a white pickup truck and reportedly forced inside. The girl was walking home from her school bus drop-off about 3 p.m.

Police say she was taken to a residence, but was able to get away and run to safety. RCMP said the girl was found by a family member about 5:30 p.m., who then called police. The girl was taken to Alberta Children's Hospital in Calgary.

Police are investigating the incident "as a priority," however investigators "do not have a clear description of the suspect(s) or the vehicle."
