Lawrence police detectives have identified a man who allegedly tried to grab a Lawrence girl off her bike on the Kansas River levee on Aug. 4.

Detectives made contact with the 45-year-old man on Aug. 15, but he has not been arrested.

Police said the man was naked when he tried to grab a 17-year-old girl off her bike near the Eighth Street boat ramp in North Lawrence. The girl was able to ride past the man and was not injured.

Police will forward a report to the Douglas County district attorney for possible criminal charges. The Journal-World generally does not identify suspects in sex crimes unless they are convicted.
