TIFU by reporting a pervert to the School my sons go to.

Over the course of the last week my twin 7 year old sons started telling me about a creepy man who sat it the parking lot at school and stared at them. This morning, I finally took the initiative and called the school. They assured me that the situation would be handled.

Now, here's how stupid I apparently am: I've been doing electrical repairs on a facility near my sons' school, and each day I park my work van in the school parking lot to eat lunch and use the WiFi. I wave to my sons as they go from one building to the building housing the cafeteria for lunch.

If you're realizing that I'm the "pervert" I reported, congratulations, you're officially sharper than me.

I didn't realize it until 3 police cars surrounded my work van.

As it turns out, between the work van they'd never seen me in, my hardhat, and my sunglasses, the boys never realized it was me.

After about a 30 minute conversation with the police and the principal, they decided I was a harmless moron and decided to let me go. I was, however, asked not to park my van there for lunch anymore.

TL/DR: Called school over "pervert" watching my sons, turns out it was me the whole time. Was nearly arrested.
