| Woman with firm grip brings attacker to his knees | |
| 2007-08-26 | |
| FORT WORTH -- A woman eluded an attempted kidnapping Friday by grabbing the would-be abductor's crotch. The 18-year-old woman was walking in the 3800 block of Maurice Avenue at about noon when a man in a car offered her a ride. After she refused repeatedly, the man got out, grabbed her by the hair and ordered her to get in, said Lt. Paul Henderson, a police spokesman. When the woman fought back, the man threw her to the ground and kicked her in the ribs, Henderson said. When the man pulled the woman back to her feet, she grabbed his crotch, Henderson said. The man fell to the ground, and the woman punched him in the face and ran away, Henderson said. She told police that when she looked back, he was lying on the ground. She contacted police from Harris Methodist Hospital. Police describe the suspect as a 20- to 30-year-old black man, about 6-1, 200 pounds. He was wearing a gray muscle shirt and bluejeans and has grilles on his upper and lower teeth. His black, two-door Pontiac Sunbird has blue lights inside and underneath, police said.

| #11 "His black, two-door Pontiac Sunbird has blue lights inside and underneath" They must be pretty bright to be seen at noon. |

| #9 From the time she was two years old, I've taught my daughter 'thumb in the eye' of any attacker. I've guaranteed her that if she does that, the attacker WILL let her go. |

| #7 Women are taught down here in Texas by local law enforcement that when in a situation such as this, regarding the croch, grab, yank, then twist. |

| #6 It's possible that in Texas, the next "so-called victim" might just shoot him and be done with him before he has a chance to regain his pride. |

| #5 This guy is going to be the laughingstock of his 'hood, beaten up by a little girl. What is scary is that to regain his 'pride' he is going to have to do something serious - like murder the girl or at least some other girl. He needs to be caught, fast. |
