A Florida mother saved her 13-year-old from an attempted kidnapping and then engaged in a “tug-of-war” with the suspect until he fled on foot—and a surveillance camera at a store caught it all. Suspect Craig Bonello, 30, didn’t make it far—an off-duty sheriff’s deputy who was outside the Dollar General arrested him as he tried to flee. The incident happened in Citrus County at around noon Tuesday. “In my 10 years on the road, I have never seen anything like this,” a sheriff’s sergeant said in a statement. “He truly intended to abduct this child right in front of everyone in the store.”
