BELLEVUE, Wash. (AP) — A man suspected of trying to kidnap a woman walking on a street in Bellevue has been arrested. Police said the suspect was identified after Seattle police recognized the suspect from a similar crime in the city. A woman reported that a man driving a white van tried to force her into his van at knifepoint on Saturday. This happened near 108th Avenue Northeast and Northup Way. After the victim refused, she flagged down a passing car and the suspect drove away. She was not hurt. Police said detectives issued a regionwide bulletin and Seattle police recognized the description and called Bellevue police with the suspect’s identification.
