This was not the man's first time in the area. Police say prior to this incident, he was seen lingering around campus. That time, he approached two male students and asked for their phone numbers.
One of the students gave him their number and ended up having to block the man.
Going forward, Boston Public Schools leaders are urging parents to remind students about the importance of being aware of their surroundings and reporting any concerning behavior to their school. And they said there will be increased security at the school on Friday.
The man was last seen wearing a black North Face jacket, a black hooded sweatshirt, blue jeans and black Air Force 1 sneakers.
