A man is in custody after Tarrant County authorities say he tried to kidnap a child and led deputies on a pursuit.
Steven Bayse, 62, faces charges of kidnapping, evading arrest with a vehicle, and aggravated assault against a public servant. Carlos Ortiz of Crowley said his two-year-old daughter is the child Bayse allegedly tried to kidnap in June.
Ortiz said he was returning home Monday evening with his wife and child from the Walmart near their home on Lansman Drive when he noticed a blue truck following them. At first, Ortiz said he didn’t think much of it and thought it could potentially be a neighbor they didn’t recognize.
