Quote:The surveillance camera footage shows an overweight man grabbing at the heels of the 15-year-old as she runs up the stairs of her school building in Philadelphia.
The man then trips on the stairs and the girl takes the chance to run away before he follows her into the building, ABC America reports.
Police say that once inside the building, the suspect grabbed at the 15-year-old girl again and attempted to expose himself.
At that point a school dean intervened and managed to direct the suspect outside.
The victim told police the suspect had followed her for more than four blocks as she walked to school.
Police believe the man intended to rape the teen and have warned people to be on the lookout for him in the local area.
