Police are searching for a Fairfield man they say tried to attack a 16-year-old girl.

Police say the girl, a student at Fairfield Ludlowe High School, was going home Friday when the man grabbed her and tried to force her into a nearby backyard. The man fled after the 16-year-old began screaming, according to police. The girl was not hurt.

Fairfield police say they have few leads on the suspect and handed out flyers Monday at the intersection of Holland Hill and Jennings roads in hopes of getting more information.
