On Tuesday, February 8, 2022, deputies from the Washington County Sheriff’s Office determined the identities of two individuals involved in what was first believed to be an attempted child luring case. Deputies received a call from a community member after they learned of the initial story. Upon further investigation, deputies discovered two juveniles were the ones who had contacted the 11-year-old child and thought it would be funny to offer the child candy.Â
The juveniles have been identified, and there is no danger to the public. Additionally, this incident is not related to the incidents in the City of Forest Grove on January 31, 2022, which is still an open investigation.
