MIAMI — A 6-year-old girl in Miami thwarted her own kidnapping outside her home after she bit the attacker, according to the Miami Police Department.
Police arrested Leonardo Venegas on Saturday in connection to the alleged abduction, an arrest affidavit shows. He was charged with kidnapping and child abuse.
Police said Venegas allegedly picked up the child and began to carry her away when she bit him on the arm, resulting in him dropping her. Venegas allegedly slapped the child and ran toward the front of the apartment complex, according to the affidavit.“He picked me up and then he slapped me,” she told the station. “Then he threw me on the floor and started running.”
The victim confirmed the man seen in the CCTV footage was the same person who allegedly tried to kidnap her, Miami police said. The woman then"intentionally grabbed" the 6-year-old, trying to break the grip between her and her mother, the report said. Ultimately unsuccessful, the suspect fled.
