Police in Butler Township remain on the lookout for a man who allegedly tried to kidnap a 7-year-old boy.
The incident happened at about 11 a.m. Tuesday in the Wal-Mart parking lot along New Castle Road.
Investigators say a 17-year-old girl was loading groceries in her car when she turned around and saw a man leading away her brother by the wrist.
The girl told police that the man, described as a white male age 35 to 45, told the boy: "Come with me."
When she yelled at the man, he let go of her brother and fled towards North Duffy Road.
The man had a long brown beard and was wearing a white bandanna, a dark-colored shirt and blue jeans. He's believed to be about 6' tall.
