Little Girl Fights Off Her Kidnapper Then Puts Slime On Him Which Helped Police Catch The Creep
A few days ago on May 18th in Pensacola, Florida, an 11-year-old girl named Alyssa Bonal was sitting, waiting for her bus to arrive at the corner of Old Corry Field Road and Perdido Street.
As she sat there, she played with some blue-colored squishy slime. At 7 in the morning, a white Dodge Journey with a silver bumper pulled up to Alyssa.
The security camera of a local business then captured a man get out of the car and run full-speed over to Alyssa.

While Alyssa had been fighting this creep off, she managed to get some of the blue slime she was playing with onto him, which helped the police catch the man in the end.
“Our concern is this wasn’t his first try,” Sheriff Chip W. Simmons said at a press conference, and then he revealed something horrific.
2 weeks before the creep tried to kidnap Alyssa at this bus stop, he had somehow approached her and spoke to her.
Alyssa knew this was not ok of the man to do, and she told her school principal, her teachers, and her parents.

Then, the guy came after her as she was waiting for the bus stop. Luckily, Alyssa escaped with only a few scratches.
The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office identified Alyssa’s kidnapper as Jared Paul Stanga, who apparently has a long track record with the law.
“Jared Stanga has been arrested and charged with attempted kidnapping of a child under 13, aggravated assault and battery,” the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office wrote in a Facebook post.

Speaking to TODAY this week, Alyssa mentioned that it was thanks to the hit TV show Law and Order: Special Victims Unit that she even thought to stick the slime on the man.
Mariska Hargitay, who plays Detective Olivia Benson, took to Instagram to praise Alyssa for her actions.
“Alyssa, first and most important, I am so relieved and grateful to know that you are safe,” Mariska wrote.
“And I am so honored to be part of your incredible story. You are one BRAVE, Strong and Smart young woman. I think the SVU squad might have to add slime to their crimefighting gear! Take good care of yourself and each other. With all my love, your number one fan, Mariska.”
