A man has tried to abduct a boy by grabbing his shirt and dragging him away as he walked to a school bus stop in Sydney's south-west, police say.

The boy had been dropped off in Leacocks Lane, Casula, by his brother just before 8am yesterday, police said.

He was grabbed by a man described as 30 years old and of Asian appearance.

But he broke free and ran back to his brother, who was sitting in a car parked nearby.

Police began canvassing the area last night after the incident was reported to them about 8.30pm, and continued speaking to local residents today.

They have urged parents to be vigilant and advised children to avoid walking on their own.
