Pit Bull Protects Mother, Saves Baby from Kidnappers
An Indiana family is safe after a frightening ordeal, and they owe it all to their protective pit bull.
On Tuesday, Nayeli Garzon-Jimenez was at home with her three-month-old daughter and the family dog when intruders forced their way in through the back door.
Garzon-Jimenez was on the phone with her husband, Adolfo Angeles-Morales, when a man and woman tried to enter. Angeles-Morales told his wife to try to identify the intruders. He later told WISH-TV, ‘In the same second, I hear the noise over my phone and she started screaming and crying, and said, someone just stuck their hand in the door.’
The man and woman managed to get inside the home and that is when the woman grabbed the infant from her Garzon-Jimenez‘s arms and demanded cash. The mother tried to pull the female assailant by the shirt, but the man turned around and hit her in the head with a gun.
When the fearful mother said she had no money to give them they attempted to leave through the back door with the woman still holding the infant.
One of the family’s dogs, a gray pit bull, stopped them from leaving, however, reportedly blocking the exit, and began growling and snarling at the intruders. He then chased them further into the house.
The intruders, who have not been identified, ran for the back door again, throwing the baby back at Garzon-Jimenez.
The would-be kidnappers fled in a 2002-2007 brown van with tinted windows.
The mother and baby were taken to the hospital, with the mother being treated for the head wound minor scraps and bruises.
A description of the intruders:

- About 35 years old
