Citrus County Sheriff’s Office recently released a video of a failed kidnapping at a Florida Dollar General.
The Citrus County Sheriff’s Office posted the video to their Facebook page June 7, showing a man attempting to grab a 13-year-old girl in a Dollar General in Hernando, Florida.
The suspect, 30-year-old Craig Bonello, can be seen in the video above wandering the Dollar General while attempting and failing to look non-suspicious. He then grabs the 13-year-old girl right from her mother and attempts to drag her out of the store.
Fortunately, the attempted abduction was thwarted by her mother and off-duty deputy Jonathan Behnen.
Bonello will be charged with one case of kidnapping and one case of child abuse.
