Detectives from the Armed Crime Squad have charged a teenage boy following an alleged abduction in Springvale South yesterday.
Investigators allege a 17-year-old girl was entering a secondary college on Janine Road when she was approached by a male about 8.30am.
The male allegedly forced the girl into a vehicle which fled the scene.
Officers from the Special Operations Group later arrested the 15-year-old boy from the Wyndham area on Jezebel Way in Tarneit about 12pm.
The girl was transported to hospital.
The boy has since been charged with abduction and will appear before court later today.
It is believed the parties were known to one another.
