Attempted kidnapping at Irving park

What we know:

According to an arrest affidavit, the attack happened at around 8:24 p.m. on Sept. 14, 2026, at the Shady Grove Trail Park located at 799 W. Vilbig St. A woman walking on the trail noticed a man, later identified as 29-year-old Isaac Guevara, pass her multiple times.

While the victim squatted down to tie her shoe near the northeast portion of the trail, Guevara grabbed her from behind and made unwanted sexual contact, investigators said. When she stood up and tried to walk away, Guevara demanded her hand and repeatedly told her to give it to him.

As the victim tried to leave, Guevara grabbed her shirt to prevent her from escaping and threatened her, stating, "If you move or scream, I'll stab you. Turn around."

Police said the victim noticed Guevara reaching toward his pocket and believed he was pulling out a knife. To defend herself and stop him from drawing a weapon, she grabbed his hand and bit him on the left collarbone and upper chest area. Guevara released her and ran from the park.

Investigators released surveillance footage of the suspect, which led community members to submit tips identifying Guevara. He was arrested on Sept. 18 on an unrelated outstanding warrant and booked into the Irving Jail.

The victim subsequently identified Guevara in a double-blind photo lineup. Detectives interviewed Guevara after reading him his Miranda rights, and police said he confessed to the crime, including threatening the victim with a knife. He is currently charged with attempted aggravated kidnapping.
