A U.S. Marine has been arrested, accused of trying to violently kidnap a 12-year-old girl in Kitsap County. KIRO 7 spoke with the victim’s father about how he helped deputies make the arrest. Investigators said the girl was on her way home from middle school when a man grabbed her and told her she was coming with him. She reportedly punched the man, ran away and took a picture of him. “She knows how to defend herself,” Dustin Praxedes, the girl’s father, said. Praxedes posted the picture on Facebook, asking for help identifying him. Someone eventually sent him the man’s address. “I’m sick to my stomach,” he said. “I didn’t sleep much until I found him.” Two days after the attempted kidnapping, Praxedes was at the suspect’s apartment.
