13-year-old boy stops kidnapper with a $3 toy his mom bought for him

Thirteen-year-old Owen Burns from Alpena Township, Michigan, was about to play “Call of Duty: Black Ops II” when he heard his 8-year-old sister screaming outside. Looking out the window, he saw a man dragging her toward the woods.

Acting quickly, Owen grabbed his \$3 slingshot and fired a marble and a rock—hitting the kidnapper between the eyes and on the chest. The man, a 17-year-old, fled. Thanks to Owen’s bravery, his sister was saved. The siblings called their mom, who alerted police. Michigan State Police later arrested the suspect, who will be charged as an adult.
