Angela Sauretti, 23, stepped up in a big way on Tuesday when she subdued an illegal migrant wanted for the rape of a 13-year-old girl. Sauretti recognized the criminal and managed to get him in a headlock until police officers arrived on the scene.
From The New York Post:
Sauretti turned to her friend and asked if the man in front of them at the 108th Street Grocery in Queens around 1 a.m. Tuesday, was the same man they had just seen on an NYPD wanted poster.
“I pointed him out,” Sauretti told The Daily Beast. “I’m like, ‘Yo, that’s him?’ [The friend] said, ‘Yes, that’s him.’ That’s what confirmed it. And everything just spiraled from there.”
Sauretti then grabbed the man, and as he tried to run away, she put him in a headlock, she told the outlet.
“He got something that his mother should have done to him,” she said. “I’ll put it that way.”
She added, “As a woman, I had to really set the tone and remind him, ‘It wasn’t a man that did this to you. It was a woman.’”
The man, later identified by police as Christian Geovanny Inga-Landi, continued to resist, prompting Sauretti to lay into him.
“You did that to a woman, and a woman got back and did this to you.” she recalled saying. “So it had him contemplating, ‘Maybe I won’t mess with the next woman.’ Because you never know. There’s nice ones and there’s ones that will really defend themselves and go all out.”
She said Inga-Landi protested the citizen’s arrest and wanted to try and explain himself to her.
“He said, ‘Let me explain!’ I’m like, ‘There’s nothing to explain. You’re a rapist,’” she added. “He said, ‘I don’t care.’ I’m like, ‘What do you mean you don’t care? You’re a rapist.’ He said, ‘I don’t care.’”
