Colton Man Behind Bars After Allegedly Trying To Kidnap Girl While Exposing Himself

COLTON (CBSLA.com) — A Colton man is behind bars after he allegedly exposed himself and tried to kidnap a girl in broad daylight earlier this week.

Evan Bruton, 19, was taken into custody Wednesday and booked into the San Bernardino County Jail. He's being held on $1 million bail.

Police said an 18-year-old girl was waiting for a bus around 9:30 a.m. Tuesday on Cooley Avenue.

She told authorities Bruton lowered his pants and tried to grab her.

The victim, however, fought back and was able to get away.

Any other possible victims are encouraged to call the Colton Police Department.
