Coeur d’Alene police are seeking information about a 4- to 5-year-old girl who may have been fondled by a registered sex offender. A witness, who said she used to live with the sex offender, said she saw the girl on the man’s lap when she approached his van, parked across from her home in the 800 block of Marie Avenue, at about 4:30 p.m. Wednesday. Then, she said she heard a voioce yelling “Donna,” “Dana,” or something similar with a “D.” At that point, the girl ran off running west on Marie Avenue, and the sex offender drove off after being warned by his former girlfriend. Who called the police later. The girl is described as having shoulder-length, brown, wavy hair. She was wearing a pink shirt and had a pink hair tie. Sgt. Christie Wood’s news release here.
