Girl wards off abduction by fighting back

I think these tactics, which may have saved this girl’s life, should be part of our education curriculum. Gone are the days where we can bury our heads in the sand and not think about it…

TUCKER, Ga. — Quick thinking by a DeKalb County teenager may have saved her life, police said Monday.

Two men tried to kidnap the girl near Tucker Middle School Monday night, police said.

The 14-year-old was on her way home from dance practice when a black van pulled up, and the men tried to grab her, Police said, adding that the girl got away when she stabbed one of the men in the arm with a pencil. The girl was not seriously hurt, police said.
