(MURFREESBORO) The investigation by Murfreesboro Police into allegations of an attempted abduction of a teen on Monday (9/17/2018) from the Kroger's parking lot on South Church Street have been determined to be false.

As a part of the investigation, the security footage of the parking area was reviewed and the victim was seen in a different area of the parking area from where the incident was reported to have occurred. Additionally, video footage showed that no one approached him during the time in question.

Officer Amy Norville told NewsRadio WGNS, "The victim reported that three males attempted to get him into their truck, with one suspect actually grabbing his arm. The location where the incident allegedly occurred was outside the area of security camera coverage. During the incident, the victim reported that he pulled away from the suspect and ran into the store to seek help from his manager."
