A 10-year-old boy in Pennsylvania is talking about the frightening moment he was being followed by a stranger while walking home from school Friday. His quick thinking allowed a store employee to step in and help him.

Sammy says the woman followed him for a couple blocks, and she was caught on camera next to him in front of the store Dani Bee Funky's. It was there where Sammy thought to duck into the store and ask a clerk for help after the woman asked if his family was around.

The video shows the woman who was interacting with Sammy walk away once Hannah stepped in to help.

"He came in, and he was really panicked," Hannah Daniels, an employee at Dani Bee Funky’s said.

Smart 10-year-old, and who knoze what might have happened to him. Hoping the woman can be found somehow -- she'll do it again, I'd bet, but maybe in a different neighborhood.
So happy for the boy, and so proud of him for knowing what to do and being able to do it.
And Hannah, bless her, was quick to help -- again hoping cameras were in use at the store or possibly other areas along the walk as she was following him.
Whew!
