The family was heading to the new Houston Astros team store, in broad daylight, when they said the man grabbed their wagon and then their youngest son.
A Houston family is urging others to be aware of their surroundings after a reported attempted abduction near Minute Maid Park in broad daylight.What was supposed to be a fun outing at a baseball stadium for a father's birthday turned frightening when the dad and his wife say a stranger tried to kidnap their young son.
"At that point, my reaction was to tackle him because I knew the intent was to hurt my son," the father added. Houston police arrested 32-year-old Devin Neal and charged him with attempted kidnapping. Court records show he is homeless and has a criminal history, including two prison stays for violent convictions. He remains in jail on a $500,000 bond, and that's where the parents think he should stay, as they are concerned for public safety.
