Duo Attempt to Kidnap Girl in Brooklyn: NYPD

Police are looking for a man and a woman they say tried to kidnap a girl in Brooklyn last week.

The pair drove a black car up to a 15-year-old girl so the woman could talk to her around 2 p.m. on Friday on 19th Street in South Slope, according to police. The man then got out and tried to pull the victim into the car, but she was able to run away.

It's unclear if the victim knew the suspects, according to police.

Police released surveillance photographs of the car on Tuesday in hopes of finding the would-be kidnappers.

Anyone with information about the suspects should call Crime Stoppers at 800-577-TIPS.
