Around 1:40 p.m. on Tuesday, officers were called to an attempted kidnapping near 114th Street and 107th Avenue. Officers say they were told an 18-year-old woman had gotten off the ETS bus on 107th Avenue when a man grabbed her from behind and dragged her into the street. Two witnesses ran to help the woman, police say, and she was successfully rescued and taken to a nearby convenience store. On Wednesday, police released photos of the suspect, taken by one of the witnesses during the attempted kidnapping. The suspect is described as a non-white male with a large build, approximately six feet tall. At the time of the attack he was wearing a gray and black checkered jacket with black trousers. Officers say the woman did not know the suspect. Investigators are asking anyone who can recognize the man or has any information on his location to contact EPS at 780-423-4567 or #377 from a cell phone. Anonymous information can also be submitted to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or online at www.p3tips.com/250.
