8-year-old girl fights off would-be kidnapper with Kung Fu moves

EL CAJON, Calif. (WTTG) - The young girl who knew some Kung Fu moves used them to escape a kidnapping attempt overnight, El Cajon police said.

Early Sunday morning, an 8-year-old girl woke up to an unidentified man in her and her 6-year-old brother's room, El Cajon police Lt. Rob Ransweiler said. The man had crawled through a window on the first floor of their condo in the 1300 block of Hawk Lane.

The suspect grabbed the girl and was dragging her downstairs when she struck him in the neck causing him to drop her and run out of the home, the young girl's mother told FOX 5. After the man ran away, she woke her parents and told them what happened.

El Cajon police received a call about the attempted kidnapping around 4 a.m. The victim did not appear to be injured and nothing was taken, Ransweiler said.

The mother said her daughter learned some self-defense moves during a martial arts class – and they paid off.

"I'm relieved that this is the story I get to tell – that she's in my home, here and safe," her mother said. "My kids are supposed to be safe while they are sleeping."

As of Sunday evening, the suspect had not been caught. He's described as a tanned adult wearing dark clothing and a backpack with many zippers and smelled of "garbage." He had dark "fluffy" hair, thin build and was between 5-feet, 8-inches to 5-feet, 10-inches tall.

A window screen was removed from a nearby condo and appeared to have happened around the same time, police said.

The Wanda Beach Murders refers to the case of the unsolved murders of Marianne Schmidt and Christine Sharrock at Wanda Beach near Sydney on 11 January 1965. Their partially buried bodies were discovered the next day.

The victims, both aged 15, were best friends and neighbours. The brutal nature of the slayings and the fact that the twin killings occurred on a deserted, windswept beach brought publicity to the case. It remains one of the most infamous unsolved Australian murder cases of the 1960s.

The victims
Marianne Schmidt

Marianne Schmidt had arrived in Melbourne from West Germany with her family in September 1958. At the time, the Schmidt family consisted of parents Helmut and Elizabeth and Marianne's siblings, Helmut Jr., Hans, Peter, Trixie and Wolfgang. Another child, Norbert, was born in Australia the following year. After arriving in Australia, the Schmidts lived in a migrant hostel in Unanderra before settling in Temora. In 1963, Helmut Schmidt moved the family to Sydney after contracting Hodgkin's disease and they found a home in the suburb of Ryde. In June the next year, Helmut Schmidt died.[1]

Marianne's next-door neighbour was Christine Sharrock.
Christine Sharrock

Christine Sharrock lived with her grandparents Jim and Jeanette Taig. Her father died in 1953 and her mother Beryl remarried and was living in the north-western Sydney suburb of Seven Hills. Christine moved in with her grandparents by choice and when the Schmidts arrived next-door, she developed a strong friendship with Marianne, who was the same age.[2] It has never been revealed as to why Christine decided it was best for her to live with her grandparents and not her mother and new stepfather.
Last movements and murder
Disappearance
The Wanda sand hills

On 1 January 1965, Christine and Marianne visited the beach at Cronulla, which had been a popular picnic spot for the Schmidts. The following day, the Schmidt children visited the beach there again without Christine. Elizabeth Schmidt had meanwhile been admitted to a hospital for a major operation, leaving Helmut Jr and Marianne in charge of the household. On 9 January, Marianne and Christine asked Elizabeth if they could take the younger children to Cronulla the next day and were given permission; however, rain prevented the trip.[3]

On Monday 11 January, accompanied by Marianne’s youngest four siblings, the girls again set off for Cronulla. They arrived at about 11am, but it was very windy and the beach was closed. The group therefore walked down to the southern end of the beach and sheltered among the rocks. Eight-year-old Wolfgang Schmidt still wanted to swim, so Marianne went with him to a shallow part of the surf away from the rocks. After they returned to the group, they had a picnic. At some point during this time, Christine left the others and went off by herself. There is no evidence of her whereabouts during this period, but after her death, it was discovered she had consumed alcohol and some food that was different from the rest of the party; it is suspected this occurred while she was alone.[4] It was also during this time that Wolfgang noticed a boy hunting crabs. Later, he claimed to have seen the same boy twice more, once in the company of his sister and Christine and again sometime much later. There has been doubt about his description of this person, as Wolfgang variously suggested he had a homemade speargun, a knife, or both.[5][6]

When Christine returned to the group, it was decided to take a walk into the sandhills behind Wanda Beach. Around 1pm, the group had reached a point around 400 metres beyond the Wanda Surf Club, and they stopped to shelter behind a sandhill as the younger children were complaining about the conditions. Marianne told her younger siblings that she and Christine would return to the rocky area at the south end of the beach where they had hidden their bags, then return to fetch the children and head home. Instead, however, the girls continued into the sandhills. When Peter Schmidt told them they were going the wrong way, they laughed at him and walked on.[5][7]

The Schmidt children remained waiting behind the sandhill until 5pm. They returned to collect their bags and then went home. The girls were reported missing at 8:30pm.
Last sighting

The last official sighting of Marianne and Christine was by local fireman Dennis Dostine, who was walking in the area with his son and saw the girls walking about 800 yards north of the surf club. He told police that they seemed to be hurrying, and one of the girls was looking behind her as if she were being followed. Dostine did not see anybody else.
Bodies discovered

On Tuesday, 12 January Peter Smith was taking his three young nephews for a walk through the Wanda Beach sandhills. Some distance north of the surf club, he discovered what appeared to be a department store mannequin buried in the sand. He brushed away sand from the hand and realised that it was a body. The police were called from the surf club. At this point Smith believed he had found only one young woman.

When the bodies were uncovered, Marianne Schmidt was found lying on her right side with her left leg bent. Christine Sharrock was face down, her head against the sole of Schmidt's left foot. From a 34-metre long drag mark leading to the scene, police determined that Sharrock had fled, possibly while Schmidt was dying, only to have been caught, murdered and dragged back to the body of her friend. Attempts had been made to rape both girls. Sharrock's skull had been fractured by a blow to the back of the head and she had been stabbed multiple times. Schmidt's throat had been slashed and she too had been stabbed several times. Semen was found on both girls but the autopsy showed that both girls' hymens were intact.[8]
Autopsy

The autopsy for Christine Sharrock found alcohol in her bloodstream. Alcohol was not found in Marianne's autopsy.[8]
Witness

A male witness had seen the two girls looking over their shoulder as if someone was following them.[8]
Investigation

A large police investigation failed to identify the killer. There had been a number of people seen in the area who were never identified; Sydney in 1965 was a conservative place and the area around Wanda Beach attracted a range of people, who did not necessarily want to identify themselves to police. This frustrated the police investigation. In February 2012, however, the NSW Police's Cold Case Unit announced that a weak male DNA sample had been extracted from a pair of jeans worn by one of the girls. While admitting that current technology was unable to provide more information, police were confident that future advances would give more assistance.[9]

It’s called the Cheetah Paw.

"You go like this — Ha!" said an 8-year-old El Cajon, California, girl as she throws a punch with a slightly closed fist.



The girl credits the martial arts move, which she said she recently learned in class, with keeping her from being kidnapped when a man broke into her San Diego County home while she was sleeping over the weekend.
The suspect removed a ground floor window screen of the condo in the 1300 block of Hawk Lane around 4 a.m. Sunday morning, El Cajon Police Lieutenant Rob Ransweiler said.

He walked upstairs to the second floor bedroom the girl shared with her 6-year-old brother, who was also asleep, Ranswiler said.



The man began to carry her down the stairs, and while half-awake she silently used the Cheetah Paw to escape her captor's clutches.

When asked how she decided to use the move, she responded: “Because it hurt him.”

After the Kung Fu punch to the neck, the girl says the man put her down and left the home before she could run to tell her parents what had happened.

Her parents said they were terrified thinking they were unaware an intruder was lurking in their kids' bedroom.

“I didn’t even know. I laid asleep while all this was happening," her mother said.
