A registered sex offender is facing charges of theft and attempted child kidnapping after authorities in Utah say he stole school bus and drove around trying to pick up children.

Patrick Frederickson, 30, is accused of walking away from his landscaping job, stealing an SUV and driving around until he found a parked school bus. He stole that and began driving a route based on a list of names and addresses he found on the bus, authorities said.

"He did stop at one residence and tried to pick up a young child, the father intercepted that and he (Frederickson) went on down the road at which time he met a person and asked for another address," Emery County Sheriff's Lt. Gayle Jensen told Fox13. "She was very suspicious about that so she called that in and at that point we responded to that area and were able to bring this to a conclusion."
