NORWALK, CT — A man accused of trying to take a child out of a parked car in Norwalk, then offering to purchase the child for money, was arrested Sunday evening, according to police.

In a news release, Police Lt. Joe Dinho said officers were called to Bouton Street around 5:30 p.m. after receiving a report of a man trying to take a child out of a parked car.

A woman told police once she unbuckled the child's seatbelt in the back of the vehicle, an unknown man reached in and began to remove the child from the car, Dinho said.

When responding officers found a man that matched the description, he was slurring his words and appeared to be under the influence of an unknown substance, police said. The man was then identified by the woman as the person who tried to take the child, Dinho said. 

Jose Domingo, 37, of Norwalk, was arrested and taken to police headquarters for processing, where he was found to have a substance that tested positive for cocaine in his possession, Dinho said.

Domingo was charged with risk of injury to a child, possession of controlled substance, second-degree breach of peace and second-degree kidnapping. He was held on a $150,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in court later this month, according to Dinho.
