A woman and her daughter were shopping in a Florida Dollar General store Tuesday morning when a man, Craig Bonello, attempted to kidnap the 13-year-old girl. Survellience video shows the man attempting to drag the girl out of the store by her arms and hair.
The girl’s mother jumped into action and engaged in a tug-of-war with the suspect in an attempt to save her child. Eventually, Bonello gave up and ran off. However, he encountered an off-duty police officer in the parking lot of the Dollar General. The officer, Dep. Jonathan Behnen, blocked the suspect from driving away and forced him out of the car, where he was arrested.
The mother and daughter escaped without injury.
