LINCOLN, Neb. -- The Lincoln Police Department released photos of a car, believed to be involved in a possible child enticement that happened Tuesday afternoon. 

The vehicle is described as light-colored, smaller 4-door car with unknown license plates. 

LPD said they believe that the vehicle is a 2008 or 2009 Buick Lacrosse and the driver is described as a male, in his 30s with longer, curly black hair. 

LPS said the incident happened on Tuesday afternoon near south 83rd St. and Yankee Woods Drive. 

Police said a parent reported her children were walking home from St. Michaels School and were approached by a man in a small car. 

The driver reportedly asked the children, ages 11 and 7, if they wanted a ride. The children became afraid, said 'no', and ran from the area. 

The investigation is ongoing.
