An eight-year-old boy is being hailed as a hero after dragging his sister from a moving car to save her from a potential kidnapping.


The pair, identified by police as Chance and Skylar, were in the back seat of the car outside a hospital in Ohio as their grandmother took a friend to the emergency room.

Around 10 seconds after 69-year-old Nita Coburn exited the car outside the Atrium Medical Center, a man jumped into the front seat and started to drive off, according to Middletown Division of Police.



In a Facebook post, the police wrote: “The little boy opened the door to escape and the little girl started to jump out also but the man grabbed the hoodie of the little girl not allowing her to leave.

“As she tried to get away her little brother grabbed hold of her and pulled her away from the kidnapper and they both tumbled out of the vehicle as it was moving."

Unaware that her grandchildren had managed to escape on the passenger side of the car, Ms. Coburn then pursued the vehicle, running and clinging on to the driver side until it started moving so fast she had to let go.

Chief Rodney Muterspaw praised Chance's actions, calling him a “hero".



He said: “This little guy is a hero. No question. He pulled his sister out of the car with no concern for his own safety. That is incredible at his age."

Police caught up with the vehicle nearby, and they said Dalvir Singh, a 24-year-old from India, had been charged with two counts of kidnapping, felonious assault and grand theft.

Jasmine Crockett Calls Out Trump's Hypocrisy By Pointing Out How Melania Got Her Visa

Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett pointed out President Donald Trump's hypocrisy on immigration considering how First Lady Melania Trump's pathway to citizenship was possible because she received an "Einstein visa," which is usually reserved for an individual with "some sort of significant achievement."

Speaking during a House Judiciary Committee hearing titled “Restoring Integrity and Security to the Visa Process,” Crockett noted that “the idea that Trump and my Republican colleagues want to restore integrity and security in the visa process is actually a joke," and harshly criticized the Trump administration's immigration crackdown and visa restrictions.

Fox Host Comes To Reporter's Defense After Pete Hegseth Berates Her At Pentagon Briefing

Fox News' chief political analyst Brit Hume came to the defense of Fox national security reporter Jennifer Griffin after their former colleague, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, criticized Griffin as the reporter "who misrepresents the most intentionally what the president says” in a Pentagon news conference.

Hegseth, a former Fox News anchor, had criticized media outlets—including his former network—for what he described as unpatriotic reporting. Hegseth took particular aim at early intelligence assessments suggesting that President Donald Trump's bombing of Iran may not have significantly crippled Iran’s nuclear capabilities.

Fox Host Slams Dem For Dropping An F-Bomb After Praising Trump For The Same Thing Just Minutes Earlier

Fox News host Emily Compagno was criticized after she praised Donald Trump's use of the "f-bomb" earlier this week before condemning Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett's use of the same word—on the same episode of her show, no less.

Trump made headlines this week after admonishing Israel and Iran for violating a ceasefire agreement he'd announced on Truth Social. Although he claimed the ceasefire had been "agreed upon," Iran fired at least six missile barrages at Israel after it was supposed to take effect.
