Strange man stalks local high school, talks to children

Filed · 1543

KILLEEN, TX – A strange man has been stalking a local high school and luring children into conversations, Duffel Blog has learned.

Reports vary, but the man is said to be dressed in green, wearing a short cropped hairstyle, and possesses an awkwardly-tapered mustache. He arrived approximately a half-hour before the school's first lunch break, where he was seen milling about in the cafeteria.

"He invited me over to this little table he was sitting at," said 16-year-old junior Kyle Smith. "There was a bowl of candy and some glossy pictures and brochures with sweaty men jumping around."
