A man who claimed he needed directions attempted to push his way into an Augusta Township home on Friday, according to the Washtenaw County Sheriff's Department.

The incident occurred in the 12000 block of Whittaker Road just before 10 p.m. The resident said a man knocked on the door and asked for directions, then requested to come in the house because it was cold.

After being denied entry, the man attempted to push his way in, but was unsuccessful and left. He was driving a four-door silver sedan parked in the driveway.

The man was described as white, 50 years old, 5 feet, 11 inches tall, 240 pounds, with salt and pepper hair. He was wearing a tan jacket and wire glasses.

Anyone with information is asked to call the sheriff's tip line at 734-973-7711.
