The horrified dad watched in horror as a man scooped up his toddler son on a busy Chicago beach, and began to walk away with him.

Armando Uvalle leaped into action and grabbed back Isaiah, 2, just seconds before he disappeared into the crowd with his alleged kidnapper! Is this your worst nightmare?

“He just grabbed him,’ Armando, 30, tells NBC Chicago. “I told him, just get away from my kid.”

The terrifying incident took place on Chicago’s North Avenue Beach over the July 4th weekend.

After his kidnapping attempt was foiled, the alleged attacker ran off, but he was apprehended later by police and identified as Tyrone Hill, 37, who has previous convictions for molesting young children.

Hill was charged with one count of attempted aggravated kidnapping of a child under 13 and one count of unlawful restraint.

Thank God Armando spotted the kidnapping in time!
