Seven Year Old Girl Fights Off Kidnapper In Walmart
Sat 11 Feb 2012 - 20:25
A 25-year-old man, already on bail for voluntary manslaughter, has been
arrested for attempting to abduct the seven-year-old from a Walmart
store in Bremen, Georgia, on Wednesday, according to US state police.
Bremen police Chief Keith Pesnell said Thomas Woods, of Austell, grabbed
the girl and attempted to leave the shop, but let her go when she
fought back.
Security cameras in the store captured the moment when Britteny Baxter wriggled free of her would-be abductor.
"I said 'I want to go see what my momma is doing' and he just grabbed me and picked me up," she said, describing her ordeal.
"I couldn't believe that somebody would do that to a little kid, so it was very scary," her mother Georgeanne Baxter added.
“It actually sent chills up me when I saw that.”
After tracing the vehicle the suspect escaped in, police later arrested
Woods 10 miles west of the supermarket in the city of Tallapoosa.
As officers led their suspect away, he denied doing anything wrong.
"I didn't bother nobody, I was never there," Woods said.
Local police said Woods faces a charge of attempted kidnapping and further charges are likely.
