Kidnapper Foiled
Jesus Delgado ^ is being celebrated as a hero after he foiled the attempted kidnapping of 4-year-old Grady O'Brien (pictured) in Westchester, California on Wednesday afternoon.
The young boy was walking with a nanny along Manchester Drive when a man grabbed the child and tried to run off with him. Delgado, an employee of T2 Tacos which is located near where the incident took place, was alerted to the crime when the nanny started screaming. He ran the suspect down, stopped him and was able to hold him until authorities arrived.
The suspect was arrested and has been charged with kidnapping. Grady's parents thanked Delgado profusely and the rest of the community has joined in praising his alertness and willingness to get involved. Delgado says he was just operating on instinct.
A group called Moms With Westchester & Playa del Rey started a GoFundMe account to raise money for Delgado, who has a 6-year-old special needs child.
