Elementary on alert after reported attack

The principal of a southeast Houston elementary school warned parents about a possible attempted abduction of a student on his way to class Tuesday.

Cornelius Elementary Principal Karen Jackson said a mustached Hispanic male wearing a black jogging suit and blue shoes grabbed a fourth-grade boy off a bike and tried to drag him up a driveway Tuesday morning. The boy escaped, ran to campus on the 7400 block of Westover and reported the attack, and the suspect remains at large.

Jackson said the school will remind students to run away in similar situations, and said Houston Independent School District police will be patrolling the area more heavily.
