A man has allegedly thwarted the attempted kidnapping of a disabled girl on a quiet suburban street, before heroically performing a citizen's arrest until police arrived.
Incredible footage shows the man holding the alleged attacker in a headlock by the road verge for several minutes before two officers arrived and put him in handcuffs.
Victoria Police confirmed they had taken a man into custody following an incident on Karingal Drive at Frankston, in south-east Melbourne, on Wednesday morning.
A police spokesperson said the man was undergoing a mental health assessment at Frankston Hospital.
