Clerk Thwarts Attempted Kidnapping

submitted by newtboy

2 years ago

A 10-year-old boy is being praised for his quick thinking after he says a woman tried to lure him away in Pottstown on Friday.

Sammy Green was walking home after school when a woman started following him on High Street.

"Started walking with him and asking him where his family was, asking where his dad was," said Sam Green, the boy's father.

Sammy did not know the woman, but she insisted she knew the child's family, and said he was supposed to come with her.

Sammy ducked into a local store and whispered to the clerk “act like you’re my mom, this lady’s following me”.

The clerk locked the door and the woman was arrested soon after.

However terrifying the story, it's great to hear that the perpetrator is being referred for mental health help rather than just being locked up. We obviously know nothing about the background yet, but that's the immediate reaction I'd have hoped for, even as a parent of a young child myself.
