Public safety warning

Two suspicious men have been reported to CK police.

The men allegedly claimed they ran out of gas for the white Honda they were driving, and tried to sell a Chatham resident jewelry for cash. They also asked to use the Chatham resident's credit card.

Officers were unable to locate the two men or their vehicle.

CK police are reminding people to not fall victim to this scam. If a stranger approaches, police say to trust your instincts. If you are suspicious of the situation, call police immediately.
