On Thursday, January 28, 2010, at about 8:45 a.m., deputies from the Jurupa Valley Station responded to a report of an attempted kidnapping involving a 12-year-old female middle school student.

The investigation revealed that the victim was walking alone through a commercial parking lot in the 5700 block of Mission Boulevard, Rubidoux, on her way to a local middle school. The suspect drove up to the victim, exited his vehicle, and ordered the victim to get into his vehicle. The suspect grabbed the victim’s arm, but she was able to break free from the suspect and ran to a nearby residence to call the police. The suspect fled the location in an unknown direction of travel.

The suspect is described as a Hispanic male adult with a dark complexion. The suspect is approximately 40 years old, 5′ 10” with a medium build, dark brown or black hair, and a full beard. The suspect spoke English with a heavy Hispanic accent. The suspect was last seen wearing a blue buttoned-up shirt, black jeans, and either a dark green or possibly black colored baseball-style cap.

The suspect’s vehicle is described as an older model white, full-sized pickup truck, unknown make or model. The truck had multiple dents and scratches on the exterior, and a gray metal toolbox installed in the bed of the truck behind the cab.
