This Was The Frightening Moment A 6 Year Old Narrowly Escaped A Child Abduction In Ohio

A Ring doorbell camera has captured the terrifying moment a man allegedly tried to abduct a six-year-old Ohio girl as she was taking out the trash.

The incident took place last week in Hamilton, Ohio, when Mandie Miller, the girl’s mom, asked her daughter to perform her usual chore of taking a bag of garbage out to the sidewalk.

“She came in with a blood-curling scream, she ran into the living room, she said, ‘Mommy, someone tried to take me,'” Miller told CNN. “I went outside and saw him walking down the sidewalk.”

In video captured by the doorbell camera, a man, later identified as 33-year-old Deric McPherson, is seen walking up to the girl and appearing to grab at her. She pulls away quickly, but he attempts to grab her again, this time holding on to her wrist.

The scared little girl can be heard screaming as she pulls her wrist free from his grip and runs back to the house. The suspect is then seen calmly walking away from the scene.

According to court documents and the victim’s parents, the suspect also groped the little girl during the attempted abduction.
