Aurora police arrested a man they suspect kidnapped an 8-year-old girl from her bedroom on Monday.
John Stanley Snorsky, 26, of Aurora has been charged with first- and second-degree burglary and second-degree kidnapping, according to Aurora police.
Snorsky was arrested on Tuesday morning in Aurora. Aurora officers worked with the assistance of the Colorado Department of Corrections Division of Adult Parole for an investigative parole hold on an unrelated case concerning Snorsky, police said.
He is being held on a $500,000 bond.
Snorsky has a lengthy criminal history, including armed burglaries and violent crimes with use of a weapon, according to records.
Officers were called to a home in the 1600 block of Hanover Street at about 12:15 a.m. Monday. Police believe the suspect removed a screen, opened the unlocked window and grabbed the girl. Police said he likely saw the light in her room and had been watching her. The girl struggled and was able to escape his grasp. When her father tried to confront the suspect, he fled.
A reward of up to $20,000 — the most in the department's history — was being offered for tips that would lead to the arrest and successful prosecution of a suspect.
Police Chief Dan Oates will hold a press conference on Saturday at noon.
