A 14-year-old central Toledo girl told police she was abducted at gunpoint yesterday by a man seeking sex, but escaped after she hit him in the groin area with a hammer she found under his car seat.
The junior high student later told police she had previously learned in school that, if something like this were to happen, to search for a weapon. So the teen told the abductor she had dropped her ring in the suspect’s car and was searching for it. She felt the hammer under the front passenger seat, then put her ring back on, she told police.
A short time later, she grabbed the hammer and hit her abductor once in the groin area, Detective Harold Mosley said.
“That was good thinking on her part,” Sgt. Richard Murphy said of the victim.

That's the way to put the hammer down!
Quick thinkin' little girl. Good for her.
Reminds me of last week's Soprano's
U can't touch this.....Stop!......Hammertime!
Obviously, when she grows up, she wants to be a bailiff.
Shocking. I would have thought he'd still been there, doubled over.
The rule in my women's self-defense class is, "If you use the groin strike to incapacitate a male attacker, use it REPEATEDLY until the attacker begins vomiting or passes out from the pain. Do not...I repeat...do not stop until you can verify "incapacity""!
Was the hammer licensed? Did she have to resort to violence? After all, violence just leads to more violence. Well, at least thank God there wasn't an unlicensed gun around, she might have broken a gun control law and shot the misunderstood person, and that would have just made things worse!

Hope the perp was nailed permanently.
Wow, Tom Delay to the rescue. This ought to help him in his re-election bid. God bless Tom Delay!
Bastard should 'a knowed better'n to bring a gun to a hammer fight.
Pity it wasn't a hatchet.
I'm a fan of Rep. DeLay, but please clarify. I don't get it.
As a guy, I shouldn't find that funny...but I do.
"
The abductor is described as a white male in his 30s, about 6 feet, 4 inches tall, and about 285 pounds. He had black hair, a braided goatee, and yellowed teeth. He was wearing a red, long-sleeve shirt, dark blue jeans, and white K-Swiss tennis shoes."
...and a really funny walk.
