FAIRFAX COUNTY, Va. (DC News Now) -- A man was arrested and charged after police said he tried to abduct a child waiting for the school bus Tuesday morning in Fairfax County.

The Fairfax County Police Department (FCPD) said the charges stem from an incident that happened just after 8:45 a.m. in the 3400 block of Hemlock Drive in Annandale.

There, FCPD learned a child was waiting for the school bus near Wadsworth Court and Little River Turnpike when a man drove up in a black Subaru and tried to persuade the child to get in his car.

The child ran to a trusted adult near the bus stop, who took a photo of the man's car before it left the area.

The child was able to get on their bus safely and reported what happened to a school official, who then notified FCPD.
