An Ontario man was arrested for allegedly attempting to kidnap and sexually assault a 15-year-old boy in Ontario on Wednesday. 

Police were made aware of the attempted kidnapping after receiving a call from the teenager, who told them that a man was trying to kidnap him. He was able to fight off his attempts and run from the area before calling police. 

The suspect, whom authorities have identified as 34-year-old Treyveon Demerre Deadwyler, was arrested blocks away from the scene where the alleged attack occurred in the 3800 block of Riverside Drive. He was on active parole for a previous sexual assault conviction. 

Deadwyler was being held without bail on charges of kidnapping with intent to commit rape, lewd and lascivious acts with a minor, child annoyance and violation of parole. 

Now, Ontario police are searching for potential additional victims of Deadwyler's. They ask anyone with more information to contact them at (909) 986-6711.
