The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office announced in a Facebook post that Bradley Mikel Wilson, 34, was arrested on Saturday after several witnesses allegedly saw him attempt to take an 8-year-old girl away from her grandmother at a Safeway store in Littleton. According to police, Wilson approached the girl and grandmother in the store's produce section and "put his hands on [the girl's] shoulders." He then reportedly asked the grandmother, "May I borrow your child?"

Wilson attempted to lead the girl out of the store with him, but the grandmother started yelling and the girl was able to break away and return to her grandmother, police said. Wilson then left the store.

But Wilson, according to police, was apparently determined. Wilson allegedly came back inside the store and "tried to take the girl again." This time, store employees reportedly intervened and chased Wilson out of the store. He left again, this time getting into his vehicle and driving away.

Sheriff's deputies arrived at the scene after Wilson fled, but they were able to track his vehicle down on a highway nearby. The suspect was arrested without incident and booked into the Jefferson County Detention Facility on second-degree kidnapping charges.

Too bad Colorado's government hates the 2nd amendment. Grandma could've helped save some taxpayer money giving this creep a swift Smith and Wesson lesson!

"Sure, go ahead and try borrowing my child. Meanwhile, scumbag, can I borrow you for a second so I can use you as a real-life Jello dummy?"

A man who approached a woman and her granddaughter in a disturbing encounter in a Lakewood grocery store last year was sentenced last week to prison.

Bradley Wilson, 34, walked up to the woman and girl in the produce section and announced, "I am borrowing your daughter," according to the woman's recollections listed in a case document.

A Jefferson County district court judge sentenced Wilson on Tuesday to six years in the Colorado Department of Corrections. The judge added a mandatory three-year parole begin upon Wilson's release.

During Wilson's prosecution, the judge order he undergo a mental health evaluation. Following that, Wilson pleaded guilty to a felony count of attempted kidnapping.

"Because of the defendant's actions, (the girl) no longer feels safe," First Judicial Deputy District Attorney Kelsey Einhorn stated at Wilson's sentencing, according to a DA office's press release. "A routine trip to the grocery store, something we all do, became a traumatic experience that shattered her sense of security. He did not leave after the first attempt; he returned and tried again. That conduct is both alarming and telling of his intent."
