Earlier this week LEX 18 reported that Moises Vergara was arrested and charged with attempted kidnapping. He is accused of following a 10-year-old girl from her school bus to her home in his white van. The incident was caught on a security video camera.
Georgetown parent Alicia Williamson says, “It makes you just feel sick, sick to your stomach.”
Williamson first saw LEX 18’s report, and it reminded her of what had happened to her daughter Addison more than a year ago. It started when her daughter wanted to walk home from school. Williamson agreed only if she stayed on a video call with her.
She explains, “She got in front of the dollar store and that man in the van was parked watching her. And she said, ‘there’s a man that’s honking and he wants me to come to the van.’ and I said, ‘well don’t look at him, just keep walking I’m gonna get in my car and I’ll meet you at the corner.’ and the next thing I know she’s screaming and running — I can’t hear anything, I can’t see anything.”
