The pair kept their distance until they saw the man inappropriately touch one of the kids at a park;<\/p>\n
The man made his way over to the park, where the mother and two sons had ventured. Then, Soch and Ortega saw the man grab one of the boy\u2019s feet and move his hand up the boy\u2019s leg.<\/p>\n
The two men immediately sensed a threat.<\/p>\n
Ortega bolted to the park and escorted the man away, while Soch stayed with the two mothers and five children.<\/p>\n
Police arrived and detained the man for questioning. Officers took witness statements from Soch and Ortega as well as the mothers and their sons.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
It turns out the man police arrested for “child annoyance” had a warrant in another county for attempted murder.<\/p>\n
