In the video | “This man was walking and he pulled me”, says a woman who survived the kidnapping

According to the New York Post, security camera footage released this week shows the moment a 6-year-old girl escaped as her attacker tried to abduct her outside her home in Ohio, USA.

Derrick McPherson, 33, was taking out the trash.

Luckily, she frees herself and runs home to alert her parents.

“This man was walking and he touched me and he pulled me,” the woman told ABC’s Good Morning America.

“He let me go because I screamed,” she added.

Upon hearing the news, his father, Ricky Nash, jumped into his car and drove Mr. Follows McPherson.

“I was very relieved when he was handcuffed,” she said.

Derrick McPherson was arrested Wednesday and charged with kidnapping and sexual assault.

He is currently being held at the Butler County Jail in Ohio.
