A 6-year-old girl in Miami fought off would-be kidnapper – by biting him.

A man accused of trying to abduct a six-year-old girl from a Miami apartment complex has been arrested. The girl says she fought him off, in part, by biting him.

She said she told police she was suddenly grabbed by the arm by a man, who they later identified as 32-year-old Leonardo Venegas, and pulled her toward the rear of the stairs."Then I bit him," said the girl."Then he slapped me and threw me on the floor." Investigators said soon after, the driver is seen walking to the staircase where the girl was. Moments later, they said, he can be seen running back to the vehicle and driving off.
