The police named the suspect as George Vassiliou. He was arrested and charged with several crimes, such as assault, criminal possession of a weapon, breaching a restraining order, and harassment.
When someone tried to hurt her daughter Lex, Adriana Alvarez told The New York Post about how she protected her. The parent told the news source, “I have never heard my daughter scream like that.”
“When I went outside, I saw my daughter being pulled away. I thought the dog might have gone downstairs.” Alvarez and Lex were able to get away and went outside to call for help. Vassiliou was held down by a neighbor until the cops arrived.
A source from the NYPD says that Vassiliou rented a car the night before the January kidnapping attempt. He left the car in front of the building where Lex and Alvarez work. They say they found sleeping pills, melatonin, tampons, and a bag with rope inside the car.
A GoFundMe page has been set up to help raise money to pay for Alvarez’s hospital bills, rent, and home bills while she heals. According to the person who organized the page, Alvarez has a broken facial bone, a broken elbow, and a broken shoulder. “These are the bandages she wears with pride to protect her cub,” they said.
