Attempted Abduction Report

Neighborhood On Alert

Firebrook Neighborhood Warned

A teenager says someone tried to abduct her as she jogged, now an upscale Lexington neighborhood has put people who live there on alert.

The Homeowner's Association sent out e-mails this week, warning people about the incident.

According to that e-mail, a 14-year-old girl was jogging last week on Firebrook Boulevard in the Firebrook subdivision.

She says when she stopped to tie her shoe, an elderly Hispanic man tried to force her into his truck, but she fought him off and ran away.

The vehicle was described as a white pick-up truck with a cab on the back.

The Homeowner's Association is telling people who live in Firebrook to be on the lookout for anyone matching that description.

The association e-mailed people who live in Firebrook and surrounding communities, as well as schools in the area.
