A 23-year-old man was jailed on a kidnapping charge after a 9-year-old girl told police a stranger tried to grab her at a Harry Potter attraction at the Universal Orlando resort.

Orlando police said Jason Mikel, of Minooka, Ill., was arrested Sunday, shortly after the incident in the locker area at the Forbidden Journey ride, Fox 35 Orlando reports.

Police said they interviewed the girl, her mother and a witness before arresting Mikel.
