Quick-thinking woman lies to save a child from kidnapper

Last week, Amy Martinez was walking to her middle school in Santa Ana, California. Without warning, a woman passing her on the street grabbed her in a bear hug (as Amy demonstrates in the photo) and started to drag her down the street. Terrified, Amy struggled and hollered but was unable to break free. 

That's when a car driving past stopped. A woman who prefers to remain anonymous got out and confronted the potential abductor. Claiming to be Amy's mother, she yelled repeatedly to let Amy go. The woman did. The anonymous hero then escorted Amy safely to school where family and authorities were notified. 

The potential kidnapper was arrested a short time later. 

To the anonymous woman, Amy says, "Thank you for saving my life. You're my hero."
