REDMOND, Wash. — Redmond Police arrested a man who officers say tried to pull a girl into his car Sunday night.

“From what I know about this incident, the girls were extremely lucky,” said Jim Fuda of Crime Stoppers of Puget Sound.

At about 11:25 p.m., police officers were called to Edge Skate Park in the 8400 block of 161st Avenue Northeast.

Two teenage sisters were reported to have been walking to the 7-Eleven on Northeast 83rd Street to get Slurpees when a man in a car approached them and asked them to get in.
