Sex Offender Stole School Bus, Attempted to Lure Children

A man in Utah has been sentenced after stealing a school bus and attempting to use the list of riders to lure children, reported the Independent Journal.

Patrick James Fredricksen reportedly found a set of master keys at a baseball field where he was doing landscaping work. Inside the bus, he found a list of riders along with directions to their homes. He then attempted to pick up one child at her home and asked for directions to another child’s home.

However, he was quickly arrested before he could hurt anyone.
