A mother from Northumberland County got a scare when a woman posing as a Children and Youth worker tried to take her little girl.
Jasmine Tucker said the woman did not have an ID badge and refused to give her name, saying only that she was a Northumberland County Children and Youth worker.
Police say at one point the woman tried to get inside the house to grab the toddler. Tucker says she's never seen the woman who tried to take her daughter but the woman knew the child's name.
The woman is described as having an average build, 35 to 45 years old, 140 pounds, blonde shoulder-length wavy hair, brown eyes, wearing a red t-shirt and blue jeans. Anyone with information is asked to call police.
