A 30-year-old Pensacola man was arrested after allegedly attempting to kidnap an 11-year-old girl as she waited at her Pensacola bus stop Tuesday morning.
The suspect who was identified late Tuesday night as Jared Paul Stanga was taken into custody without incident earlier in the day at a home on Betty Road, said Escambia County Sheriff Chip Simmons during an evening press conference.
Deputies found the white Dodge Journey the man is suspected of driving in the home’s driveway, although the front chrome bumper had been freshly painted black. Deputies told the public to look out for the white car with a silver chrome bumper earlier Tuesday.
