A good Samaritan intervened, the suspect released the child, and retreated into a newer dark SUV and fled the area
On Sunday (Aug. 18) at about 3:40 p.m., an unidentified male attempted to abduct an 11-year-old child at Lieser Crest Part, located at 7510 Virginia Lane in Vancouver.
A good Samaritan intervened, the suspect released the child, and retreated into a newer dark SUV (possibly a Jeep), and fled the area, traveling north on Fredericksburg Way. The male suspect is unknown to the child.
The suspect is described as a white male, 5-foot-8 and about 140 pounds, in either his 20’s or 30’s, with short brown hair. He may have had a short beard with face, hand and possibly stomach tattoos. He was wearing a black hoodie, black basketball shorts with red on the sides and dark shoes.
