Boy, 15, Held In Attempted Kidnap Of Toddler

By Sky News US Team

Police have arrested a 15-year-old boy on suspicion of attempting to kidnap a toddler in an incident caught on camera.

The teenager, who lives in the small farming town of Sprague in eastern Washington state, was arrested on Wednesday.

Dramatic surveillance video footage showed a male running down a sidewalk with 22-month-old Owen Wright in his arms in Sprague last Sunday.

The child's two siblings screamed and chased him. The scene ended after two teenage boys joined the chase, and the man put the toddler down and fled.

Owen was not hurt, police confirmed.

The 15-year-old was booked into a juvenile detention facility on suspicion of second-degree kidnapping, Lincoln County Sheriff Wade Magers said.

Detectives working on the case started focusing on the arrested suspect in the past 24 hours. They collected additional evidence, DNA and carried out interviews and surveillance to identify the suspect, Sheriff Magers said.

One of Owen Wright's siblings also positively identified the suspect.

The identity of the youth was being withheld because he is a juvenile. The Lincoln County Prosecutor's Office will make the formal charging decisions.
