A man reportedly snatched a nine-year-old boy in Maida Vale last night and tried to carry him off before the boy was able to break free and escape.
The man carried the boy along Billara Street, Priory Road and Kalamunda Road before taking him to scrubland near a local primary school.
When the boy struggled, the man dropped him to the ground and then allegedly threatened him with a knife. But the nine-year-old was able to break free and run home to alert his mother.
The man is described as being in his mid 20s, of fair skinned complexion, about 180cm tall, with a muscular build and with a bald head.
Midland detectives are seeking witnesses to the attempted abduction and have asked anyone who can help the investigation to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
