Definitely odd and scary...I'm surprised that he approached you whenyou had the dogs with you...Maybe he was testing the waters to see how the dogs would react to a stranger....I would tell the police definitely....this guy is obviously strange and dangerous. Better to mention it than not and have someone else get hurt....

Let me give y'all a bit of advice that my mother gave me years ago....if someone tries to force you into a car, yours or theirs, NEVER go...Scream and raise h*ll but don't get in!! If they are h*ll bent on killing you, let them do it right there in a public place. Chances are they won't since the reason they want to get you in the car is to get you away from other people....Your chances are better where you are than where they want you to be....

You all probably know that already but it's worth repeating...
