A 6-year-old girl is being hailed as a hero for saving herself from an alleged would-be kidnapper.
Lyric — identified in local reports only by her first name — says that when Leonardo Venegas tried to abduct her as she was playing outside her apartment in Miami’s Little Haiti neighborhood in Florida, she knew what to do.
“I bit him,” she told local ABC affiliate WPLG. Police say that was enough to stop Venegas, 32, from kidnapping the girl.
“He picked me up and then he slapped me,” Lyric also told reporters. “Then he threw me on the floor and started running.”
