Police on Long Island arrested a man for allegedly attempting to lure at least two children to his vehicle.
Michael Chemick, 23, of Woodmere is accused of asking a 14-year-old girl walking on Fish Ave. in North Bellmore to come over to his car. He then yelled obscenities and exposed himself, said police.
The girl took off on foot.
In the second alleged incident, Chemick was again traveling in his 2010 Honda Accord when he asked a 15-year-old girl walking along Beltagh Ave. in Bellmore to stop and talk with him, according to police.
The girl told cops it was the third time in two weeks that Chemick had approached her or followed her around in his car.
Chemick is charged with attempted luring of a child, two counts of endangering the welfare of a child and stalking.
He will be arraigned on Thursday in First District Court, Hempstead.
