GROVE CITY, Ohio -- South-Western City Schools parents wanted to know why the district didn't immediately notify them about a crime alert.
NBC 4 reported with the FAST FACTS.
Grove City police issued an alert last week about a suspicious man who allegedly importuned two girls at a local school-bus stop.
GCPD said the man has been driving past the school-bus stop at the corner of Haley and Natalie drives in the Hoover Park subdivision.
Parents said they weren't notified about the alert until this week.

"I talked to someone at the district today, and they took full responsibility, and that's great. They apologized, and that's great, but it doesn't fix it. Luckily, nothing happened this time, but that was just pure luck," parent Sue Barnes said.
A district spokesperson said she thought the district was on the Grove City police alert list but the district didn't get the alert right away.
She said she made sure the district is on direct-alert status.
She also said since the incident was isolated to one area, only families who live in the area were notified about the alert.
