COMMERCE CITY, Colo. — Police in Commerce City are asking for the public’s help after a man attempted to kidnap a young girl near an elementary school Wednesday.
The teen girl was walking from the Second Creek Elementary School area between 4:30 and 5 p.m. Wednesday when she was followed by a man for about three blocks, according to a news release from the Commerce City Police Department.
Police said she was able to contact her parents, who then called 911 immediately.
Investigators said the girl provided a “very detailed description” of the suspect and the car he was driving, describing him as a bald, Hispanic man in his 30s with a longer dark-colored beard and a snake tattoo on his outer left forearm.
The girl told police at the time of the incident that the suspect was wearing a white t-shirt and black pants. The car was described as gray/silver in color with tinted windows, some damage to the front fender on the driver’s side near the headlight, and possible taillight damage on the same side.
