The surveillance camera recorded the moment when an unknown person was walking behind two small children, and then tried to pull the girl aside.
The girl’s brother reacted in time, grabbed his sister’s hand and did not let her be taken away.
The Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs for the region told RT that law enforcement officers are already looking for the man.
An RT source in law enforcement agencies said that the kidnapping version is not being considered: the man released the girl after a few meters. His motives are being clarified.
Earlier it became known that the Chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia, Alexander Bastrykin, would be provided with a report on the progress of the investigation initiated into the attempted kidnapping of a first-grader from a school in Voronezh.
