WASHINGTON — Herndon police have arrested a man on charges of trying to kidnap a teenage girl in July.

On Tuesday, police arrested 40-year-old Jose Guadalupe Santamaria after police say he tried to kidnap a teen while she was waiting for a bus in Herndon on July 13, 2015.

Police say around 7 p.m., a teen girl was waiting for a bus when Santamaria, a Herndon resident, approached her and offered her money to come to his house. The girl says she refused and walked away.

Santamaria then approached her from behind and tried to force her to come with him, police say. The girl broke from his grip and ran back to her house.

Law enforcement located Santamaria near a residence in Loudoun County and arrested him.

Santamaria is charged with abduction with the intent to defile and attempting to entice a subject into a dwelling. He is being held at the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center without bond.
