Police are warning San Jacinto residents about an attempted kidnapping of a 16-year-old girl.
Investigators said the alleged incident happened around 12:16 p.m. Wednesday as the teen was walking
The girl said she noticed a man following her in a newer, red four-door compact vehicle. The suspect got out, grabbed the victim and attempted to carry her away, according to detectives.
Police said the victim screamed for help, so the suspect let her go, ran back to his car and fled the area.
The suspect was described as a Hispanic male in his early 20s with brown hair, standing about 6 feet tall and weighing 230 pounds. He was wearing thick black framed reading glasses.
Because the victim was a female, I don’t think it was Purvis. Had it been a young boy, he would be more suspect of the crime. He doesn’t hang out at those parades looking to pickup on girls, that’s for certain!
