PICKERINGTON, Ohio (AP) - A 15-year-old boy has pleaded guilty to charges that he tried to abduct two women in a suburban Columbus neighborhood.

A judge on Friday accepted the teen’s pleas to two counts of abduction. As part of a plea agreement with prosecutors, other charges were dropped.

Prosecutors said the teen on two separate occasions earlier this year grabbed women in a neighborhood in Pickerington, but the women got away and he fled. In one case, a surveillance camera caught someone leaving the area.



The boy admitted to the judge Friday that he did it.

WBNS-TV (https://bit.ly/1wgXO3R ) reports that after a pre-sentence investigation, the teen could be ordered to serve time in a juvenile facility.
