He had imprisoned her for more than twenty hours, assaulting and stabbing her repeatedly, until she was able to squirm out of his grasp and into the view of the neighbors; <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>There was a lot of ruckus,\u201d said neighbor Tatiana Scriver. \u201cThey almost sounded like there was a stampede going through the building.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Another neighbor Nicky Mimikos said, &#8220;He\u2019s on top of her just punching her in the face. He got up and started stomping her in the face.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s when another neighbor, Henry Oppenheim, saw what was going on and sprung into action.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So I quickly ran into my room grabbed my gun and went out to defend her,&#8221; said Oppenheim \u201cI said let her go. And then he finally did it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Oppenheim has a concealed carry permit and says he brings his gun almost everywhere he goes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And then we moved her to the front to get her safe and secure and away from him,&#8221; said Scriver.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We all stick together and when we see a girl getting beat &#8212; we just don&#8217;t allow that,&#8221; said Mimikos<\/p>\n<p>As for Oppenheim, he says he&#8217;d do it all over again.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In a heartbeat.
