A man was taken into custody for allegedly trying to kidnap someone near Mountain Range High School.

According to the Westminster Police Department, a 31-year-old man has been arrested and charged with aggravated robbery, kidnapping, and attempted kidnapping after allegedly trying to abduct a student near Mountain Range High School. The incident occurred on the morning of October 25th, when a young girl reported that a man in a silver vehicle had approached her near West 125th Avenue and Delaware Street.

The girl stated that the man threatened her with a gun and demanded that she get into his vehicle. However, she bravely refused and the man then proceeded to grab her backpack and flee the scene. Thankfully, the girl was unharmed and immediately reported the incident to the police. Through their investigation, authorities were able to identify the suspect as Jeremiah Mullins.

Hours later, Mullins was apprehended in the 12000 block of North Melody Drive and taken into custody. This is not the first time that Mullins has been involved in a kidnapping case. In 2019, he was arrested for kidnapping an Aurora woman while she was warming up her car. He pleaded guilty to attempted aggravated robbery and was sentenced to 12 years in prison. However, it is currently unknown when he was released from custody.

Along with the charges of aggravated robbery, kidnapping, and attempted kidnapping, Mullins is also facing charges of aggravated motor vehicle theft and possession of a weapon as a previous offender. He is currently being held on a $1 million cash bail. It is clear that Mullins is a dangerous individual and it is fortunate that he has been taken off the streets.

These types of incidents are a reminder of the importance of remaining vigilant and reporting any suspicious behavior to the authorities. It is also a reminder of the flaws in our parole system. Mullins was able to be released from prison after serving only a portion of his sentence, which highlights the need for stricter parole laws. Let us hope that justice is served and that Mullins is held accountable for his actions. If you would like to stay updated on crime news, be sure to sign up for our daily newsletter.
