Toronto police are asking for the public's help in finding two men who allegedly tried to pull a woman into a car in Scarborough late Monday afternoon.

The incident happened just after 5 p.m. near the Meadowvale Road and Sheppard Avenue East intersection.

Investigators said two males riding a dark-coloured, four-door Honda drove up to a female pedestrian who had just gotten off a TTC bus nearby.

The vehicle's passenger reportedly called the woman over to ask for directions and then tried to pull her into the vehicle. The woman was able to break free of his grip and notify police.

Police are now searching for both the driver and the passenger.

The driver has been described as a male in his mid-to-late 30s with a dark-brown complexion and a thin mustache. He was last seen wearing a white t-shirt with black lettering.

The passenger is said to be a male who is also in his mid-to-late 30s with a dark-brown complexion. Police said he is about 5-foot-7 with a medium build, a "slick" black hairstyle and thick eyebrows. He was last seen wearing a plain red t-shirt with denim shorts.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 416-808-4200, Crime Stoppers at 416-222-TIPS (8477) or online at www.222tips.com.
