Attack Suspect Found Thanks To Video

(Linndale) - A 15-year-old boy is under arrest for the attempted abduction of a teenage girl who had just gotten off an RTA bus.

The girl says she was attacked last Monday after exiting the bus near West 120th and Bellaire in Linndale.  She ran to the Linndale Police station.

A week later, her attacker was found, thanks to surveillance video from the bus and on the street, which showed the attacker getting off the bus right after the girl, then following her.  He was identified through his unique backpack.

The boy is a student at Cleveland's Rhodes High School.

Linndale Police are looking into whether the boy could be linked to other attacks in their village.
