Toddler Taken Hostage At Walmart
I couldn't believe when I read the news. You think you are safely shopping with your children and the next minute a criminal takes your child and holds your child ransom with a knife pointing at her neck!
QUOTE A mom's routine grocery trip turned into a harrowing ordeal after one of her girls was taken hostage in a deadly standoff.
"I was literally begging for my daughter's life," said Alicia Keating, whose recent trip to an Oklahoma Walmart was captured by the store's surveillance video.
While Keating's back was turned, a complete stranger walked up to Keating's cart and picked up her 2-year-old daughter, Zoey. He walked away as the girl's 12-year-old sister watched in shock.
"Here's this huge man standing there with my daughter in his arms and he has a knife pointing towards her side," Keating said on TODAY in a segment that aired Wednesday. "He said really quietly, "Hey, little mamma. You see this knife?""
Keating became hysterical. She began screaming, pleading with the suspect to let her daughter go.
"I did not maintain my composure. I was completely freaked out," she said. "I wanted to reach out and grab her but he had a knife. There was nothing I could do but stand there and beg for her life."
Meanwhile, other shoppers in the store had called 911.
"There's someone with a knife holding a little girl hostage," one man told the emergency operator.
Police provided Wallace with a chair. As he began a threatening countdown, they said they took action.
"He took this woman's kid and we need police here immediately," said another caller...
