Two suspects were arrested tonight for the September 22nd attempted kidnapping of a fifteen-year-old girl. The crime took place in front of a commercial building at 370 19th Street (between 7th and 8th avenues) at 2:40 p.m.
Brooklyn residents Raymond Ortiz, 60, of Wyckoff Street, and Delgria Lynch, 33, of Avenue T, were charged with two counts of second degree attempted kidnapping, acting in a manner injurious to a child, and two counts of second degree harassment. Two publications give his name as Richard Ortiz.
Allegedly, Lynch lured the girl over to the SUV that Lynch was a passenger in. Ortiz then grabbed the girl by her arms and tried to pull her into the SUV, but she was able to break away from him and escape.
