A 13-year-old girl was able to get away from a man police say attempted to abduct her.
The suspect approached the girl, who was walking alone, along Bristol Pike in the Morrisville section of Falls Township last Wednesday at around 4:20 p.m., police said. The abduction attempt happened in the area of the W section of the Pennwood Crossing Mobile Home Park.

According to police, the man called for the girl to come over to him. The girl didn’t follow his command and he got out of the truck and started walking toward the girl.
A good Samaritan, who was driving past, stopped and was able to block the man and let the girl run away, police said.
The suspect is described by police as a bi-racial male between 40- to 50-years-old, five-foot-eleven to six-foot-tall, short hair that is mostly white and light scruffy facial hair. Police described his face as “chubby.”
