A teenager was shouted at by the passenger of a van who then pointed a firearm at her, Lincolnshire Police have said.
The girl, in her mid-teens, was coming from the direction of Ruskington Youth Club at 19:30 BST on Monday when the incident happened near to the junction of Westgate and Manor Street.
The passenger, travelling in a white transit van, is reported to have leaned out of the window and shouted, before pointing what police said resembled a pistol.
The girl left along Westgate and the van is thought to have travelled in the same direction.
Officers carried out immediate searches of the area after the girl flagged down a passing police patrol to make a report.
Lincolnshire Police is asking for anyone who may have information which could identify the van and its owners to get in touch.
