Police are asking for help finding a man they say tried to lure two teenage girls into his car.

They say the man drove up to a 13-year-old girl on Northern Boulevard at 102nd Street in Queens Friday morning.

They say he tried to start a conversation with her, grabbing her by the arm when she moved away from his car.

Later that night, police say he drove up to a 14-year-old girl near Northern and Parsons Boulevards and tried to get her to come closer to the car.

Both girls were able to get away.

The suspect was last seen driving a black Escalade.

He's described as being in his early to mid-30s, between 5 feet, 7 inches and 5 feet, 9 inches tall and weighing about 170 pounds.

Anyone with information on the case should contact the Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS, or text CRIMES and then enter TIP577, or visit www.nypdcrimestoppers.com.
