• A 9-year-old child was saved from an abduction when his mother spotted the attacker attempting to carrying the child away from a birthday party at a NYC Synagogue.
• “The boy was attending a party at the Hesed Le Avraham Synagogue on East 7th Street in Gravesend around 9:30 a.m. when a man who had been praying inside approached him, cops said. The stranger asked the child to go outside with him — and when the kid refused, he picked him up by the shoulders and tried to carry him out through the front door,” police told the New York Post.
• The mother asked her son if he knew the creep, to which the boy replied he did not. The mother then snatched the child away and alerted authorities, who arrested the 42-year-old potential abductor hours later.
