New Port Richey, Fla. (970 WFLA)-The Pasco Sheriff's office is trying to identify and find a man who chased, and attempted to kidnap, then later tried to persuade a nine year old girl to get in his car.
It was just after 3 pm Tuesday, May 9th. The nine year old female victim was walking home near Little Creek Drive and Canopy Drive, in New Port Richey, when she was chased from the roadway and between houses by an adult white male.
While trying to find help, the victim lost the suspect. When she returned home, the same suspect again approached her in a blue car and made several verbal attempts to get her into the car. The child managed to lock herself inside her residence and the suspect left the area. She is a student of Deer Park Elementary.
If you have any information, please contact the Pasco Sheriff's Office at 800- 706-2488.
