BURBANK (CBSLA.com) — A homeless man was arrested Wednesday for allegedly exposing himself to a 16-year-old girl and then attempting to kidnap her in Burbank.

Police said the incident happened around 7 a.m. on Keystone Street and Magnolia Boulevard while the girl was walking to John Burroughs High School.
