I found this on the website of the Sarnia Police Service:
Note that the description provided by the alleged victim, offers that the perpetrator was a male native.
The police later issued this statement on the above abduction allegation:
It would seem that natives make perfect scapegoats for teenage girls seeking attention and thrills. Note the punishment that is being doled out to this female.
I also found this on the website of the Sarnia Police Service:
More teenage females seeking attention and thrills at the expense of the taxpayers and at the cost of an innocent person's reputation and freedom.

Subsequent to the complaint of a 16-year-old female who reported to police that unknown persons had attempted to abduct her in the area of Ontario Street and Ross Avenue just prior to 10:00pm last evening
(May 24th, 2006), investigators have determined that the allegation was fabricated. During a follow-up interview with the 16-year-old, she admitted to police that no attempted abduction had occurred. Investigators will recommend that the young female be dealt with pursuant to the Youth Criminal Justice Act through an alternative measures program to be held responsible for her actions.
“While it is regrettable that some citizens may have been caused undue worry in regard to an
attempted abduction occurring in our city, we must always act on this type of information and
notify the public of a potential threat in a timely fashion" said Cst. Bill Baines, " it is certainly
better to err on the side of caution than to leave the citizens of Sarnia unaware of such goings
on" Baines added.
It would seem that natives make perfect scapegoats for teenage girls seeking attention and thrills. Note the punishment that is being doled out to this female.

Sarnia Police Service said:Investigation Concluded
1/4/05 8:32:36 PM
The Criminal Investigation Division of the Sarnia Police Service has concluded their investigation into an alleged sexual assault reported to have been committed on a 15-year-old female in a Lambton Mall bathroom on Sunday January 2nd 2005. Information received from a number of sources through the course of the investigation caused investigators to re-interview the complainant on January 4th. As a result of that interview and the information obtained through the investigation, it has been determined that no assault occurred.
The 15-year-old female advised officers in today's interview that she had concocted her story after watching an episode of "CSI" on television. In that episode a young girl had developed a story of being sexually assaulted to the point of causing injuries to herself to support her story.
"Allegations of such serious criminal offences demand a higher level of response from the police service with a team of investigators, including forensic officers being called in and working around the clock to get a jump on the investigation. Of course this response comes with a significant price tag and when the allegations prove to be false, that money spent, is non - recoverable,� stated Cst. Bill Baines.
A decision on the filing of Public Mischief charges is pending.
The Sarnia Police would like to thank the community for their response in coming forward with information that assisted in the investigation. We would also like to thank the staff at Lambton Mall for their assistance
in bringing this investigation to a conclusion. Officers have reviewed security issues with mall management
resulting in several improvements and we are of the opinion that security at the mall is adequate.
" It must also be recognized that there is an increased level of anxiety and concern that this incident and other recent incidents have created in the community. We will always lean in the direction of community safety in bringing such incidents to the attention of the public in order that they can take precautions when necessary" said Cst. Bill Baines. "It is unfortunate that this particular incident comes on the heels of several other very serious occurrences".
