Los Angles County Sheriff’s Department deputies responded just after 2:35 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 26, to the 200 block of East Avenue P1 after receiving reports of a man who attempted to take a child by force, said Deputy Ronald Sneed of the Palmdale Sheriff’s Station.

Arriving deputies learned from the 8-year-old boy and witnesses at the scene that the boy was walking home from school with his cousin when he passed the man who was standing in his driveway. The man allegedly grabbed the boy and ran away while carrying him over his shoulder, Sneed said.
The boy began to kick and scream, alerting his family who looked out of a window of their home and allegedly saw the man running away with the boy. Witnesses told deputies the man then dropped the boy and ran into the garage of his home, Sneed said. The boy was not injured in the incident.
Sheriff’s patrol vehicles surrounded the man’s home and ordered him to exit. The man eventually left his home, surrendered to deputies and was arrested on suspicion of attempted kidnapping, Sneed said.
The man’s name was not immediately released. A motive for the alleged kidnapping attempt was not immediately known.

Palmdale Man strikes again. This time it’s the neighbor.
Mike says
This guy should be convicted and forced to live with the sexual predator that just got released in east Palmdale.
Tim Scott says
Why? Sounds like they have common interests and would probably enjoy each other’s company.
Stinger says
Interesting that you should say that… Did you know that evidence shows that housing multiple sex offenders in a monitored group housing setting helps reduce recidivism?
Tim Scott says
Really? That’s…unexpected.
Begs the question of what constitutes a monitored group housing setting, but something interesting to look into.
K.T. says
Palace Mobile Home Park, (Pervert Park). Look it up online.

Isn’t the Palmdale jail in West Palmdale?
