A Southwest City man is facing charges of attempted kidnapping, endangering the welfare of a child, and burglary after a string of criminal activity.
Wesley E. Wolf, 26, is accused of attempting to force a seven-year-old girl into his vehicle on the evening of July 2.
The child was playing in the front lawn of her home on Poplar Street when Wolf approached her and attempted to entice her into leaving with him.
When the girl refused, Wolf fled the area with his one-month-old child to his apartment on Ridge Street. Wolf then placed the infant in danger by walking in the area with his child while it was raining.
Wolf went on to force his way into a neighbor's apartment, causing the residents to fear for their safety.
According to court records, his child was with him during this invasion as well.
