LOS ANGELES -- Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Montana and his wife confronted a home intruder who attempted to kidnap their 9-month-old grandchild over the weekend, law enforcement officials confirmed on Sunday.
According to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, Montana told deputies that his grandchild was sleeping in a playpen on Saturday when an unknown woman entered their home in Malibu and grabbed the child. Montana and his wife, Jennifer, confronted the woman, whom authorities later identified as Sodsai Dalzell, tried to "de-escalate the situation" and asked her to give back their grandchild.
After a tussle, law enforcement officials say Jennifer Montana pried the child out of Dalzell's arms.
"Thank you to everyone who has reached out," the former San Francisco 49ers star tweeted. "Scary situation, but thankful that everybody is doing well. We appreciate respect for our privacy at this time."
The sheriff's office says that Dalzell fled the home but was later arrested. She faces kidnapping and burglary charges.

Creepy and dangerous.
Quarter Backs are not known for their ability to tackle.
Joe called an audible and Jennifer tackled.
This happened in Malibu. They should have turned her into shark food.
OMG, this is horrendous! I’m so glad they got they grandchild and that the woman has been arrested.

Sounds like QB wives are, though! Good for Jennifer Montana.
Thankful that this turned out like it did.
So scary.
I suspect even a quarterback might find a big hit in his repertoire when his grandchild is being kidnapped.
The Montana Family needs a new security system and a new babysitter. There present babysitter somehow allowed this Kook to take the Baby from her and walk out.
Sodsai Dalzell. Amish right?
“Sodsai”
Sounds like a Thai name.
Not to give away her old family secret but I think her grandmother was Dutch.
If so, not reported and the chick escaped the home.
She’s on the run, and they are looking for her. Would a photo be too much to ask?
Agree about the picture part, but it did say she fled but was later arrested.
Kidnappings appear to be up in CA - this guy is already out on bail
Thai or Malay
And not ugly
WTF are they blurring the perp’s image but not the victims?
A loose ball was picked up by a member of the opposing team, but the QB’s wide receiver pried it away in recovery.
