He was driving a maroon, four-door car. On Thursday, two Bismarck boys, ages 7 and 9, were walking along the 1800 block of Rosser Avenue, when a brown van with two men inside stopped along the street. The men got out and tried to pull the boys into the van. One of the boys worked his way free and ran, and the other boy got away by biting the arm of the man holding him. The boys ran to a friend's house and notified police.
Police still have no suspects in that case.
One suspect was described as being between 18 and 30 years old and the other between 30 and 40 years old. Sevart said Bismarck usually has a couple of these attempted abductions every year. So far, this year, there have been three. In addition to the aforementioned two, this summer, two boys in Hillside Park got away from a man told them to get into his car because he had candy in it and grabbed an ankle of one of the boys. That suspect was described as having short brown hair and being in his 20s.
