School district officials posted a notice on their web site about the potential luring incident, in which they asserted that township police had been immediately notified.
A potential luring incident early in the morning of April 5 involving elementary school children was never reported to township police, although a message from the school district said the FTPD was immediately notified after it happened.
Lt. Phil Rizzo, a police department spokesman, said that police did not learn of the incident until they contacted school district officials in the afternoon of April 6 – more than 30 hours after it occurred – in response to a call from the Franklin Reporter & Advocate.
