Students are being asked to walk in groups since police say two teenagers at separate times were grabbed and lured into a wooded area.
They aren't saying exactly where the incidents occurred, due to the investigation, but say both happened Thursday morning between 6:30 and 7.
One victim tells police the man had a knife. The other says he stole her pocketbook. Both girls give the same description.
The suspect is described as having a thin build, about 6-foot tall, approximately 30 years old and wearing dark clothing.
Brentwood neighbors say it's scary to hear about two attempted abductions in a half-hour span.
Anyone with information is asked to call CrimeStoppers at 800-220-TIPS.
