Man, Woman Accused of Trying to Kidnap 15-Year-Old Girl in Brooklyn

A man and a woman have been accused of trying to kidnap a 15-year-old girl in Brooklyn last week.

Police say that Richard Ortiz, 60, and Delgria Lynch, 33, were charged with attempted kidnapping on Thursday. 

The pair drove a black car up to a 15-year-old girl so the woman could talk to her on Sept. 22 on 19th Street in South Slope while she waited for the bus, according to police.

The man then got out and tried to pull the child into the car, but she was able to run away.

Police said the girl was not injured.

Attorney information for them was not immediately clear.
