Neighbors Frustrate Kidnapping Attempt

LAS TUNAS, May 31 (Bertha Mexidor Vázquez, Agencia Libertad) – Thirteen-year-old Gretel was kidnapped by a young man on March 23. The child was in front of her house when the suspect grabbed her and dragged her toward the outskirts of the city. Neighbors who heard her cries came to her aid and the suspect left the scene. He was not identified.

Gretel was taken to the "Ernesto Guevara" provincial hospital where medical personnel cleaned up scratches in various parts of her body.

Recently there have been several cases similar to this one recorded in the area. The police have not come up with any suspects.
