<p class="mol-para-with-font">The charges stem from Adams falsely reporting that an Egyptian man attempted to kidnap her daughter from a West Virginia shopping mall Monday evening. <br />Police had initially said a woman pulled a gun on Zayan, forcing him to release her five-year-old daughter inside the Old Navy at the Huntington Mall. <br /><a href="http://ronmat96.gaming777.hop.clickbank.net"><img class="" src="http://www.gamingjobsonline.com/images/banner/banner250x250.jpg" rel="prettyPhoto"></a><a href="http://ronmat96.gaming777.hop.clickbank.net"><img class="" src="http://www.gamingjobsonline.com/images/banner/250/250x250-2.jpg" rel="prettyPhoto"></a><br />He was arrested near the Huntington Mall&#8217;s food court on an attempted abduction charge. <br />But her story started falling apart when no witnesses could be found and mall surveillance video showed inconsistencies in her original statement. <br />That led to police saying the Adams then said she may have misinterpreted the Zayan&#8217;s intentions. </p>

<p class="imageCaption">Police said that the whole incident stemmed over a &#8216;cultural misunderstanding&#8217;.<br />Zayan doesn&#8217;t speak English, and police say he may have simply been patting the girl on the head. The 54-year-old engineer from Alexandria, Egypt, who is in the area for work.<br />He cried as he greeted family members upon his release from jail. The young girl&#8217;s mother said she thwarted the kidnapping attempt by pulling a gun out and scaring him off &#8211; but Barboursville police now say they&#8217;re going to charge Santana Renee Adams with falsely reporting an emergency incident</p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">The girl had been shopping with her mother inside an Old Navy store at Huntington Mall in Barboursville, West Virginia on Monday night. <br /><a href="http://ronmat96.printmytat.hop.clickbank.net"><img src="http://printmytattoo.com/images/banners/250x250-c.jpg" rel="prettyPhoto"></a><a href="http://ronmat96.printmytat.hop.clickbank.net"><img src="http://printmytattoo.com/images/banners/300x250-a.jpg" rel="prettyPhoto"></a></p>
<p>The mother initially told police that she had been shopping on Monday evening with her daughter at the Old Navy store when Zayan &#8216;grabbed the child by the hair and attempted to pull her away&#8217;.<br />She said the girl tried to stop her kidnapper, dropping to the floor as he was &#8216;still pulling her away&#8217;. That&#8217;s when the girl&#8217;s mother pulled out a handgun and told the man to let go of her daughter.<br />The mother told investigators that the man released her daughter and sprinted out of the store and back into the mall, according to <a class="class" href="https://www.wsaz.com/content/news/Man-arrested-after-attempted-abduction-at-Huntington-Mall--507974071.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">WSAZ</a>. <br />She gave officers a description of the suspect. Officers and mall security then spotted Zayan walking near the food court and arrested him.<br />He was subsequently charged with attempted abduction shortly after 6pm.<br />But police later said they found inconsistencies with the mother&#8217;s report, according to <a class="class" href="https://www.wowktv.com/news/local-news/police-to-charge-mom-after-huntington-mall-incident/1893883643" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">WOWK</a>.</p>

<p>The suspect was arrested. Mohamed Zayan denied the accusations and even said he couldn&#8217;t tell you what the mom and child look like. He also said a gun was never pulled on him, as the mother claimed.<br />Police say Zayan may have simply been patting the girl on the head and smiling. &#8211; Video surveillance near the Old Navy entrance shows Zayan and Adams calmly walking out of the store nearly 35 seconds apart and going in opposite directions.<br />Investigators confirmed that Adams had a gun in her front pocket, a 9 mm Smith and Wesson.<br />Investigators say they&#8217;re not sure about a motive for Adams making her original statement and then changing it.<br />She was asked to return to the police station to give a further statement, and reportedly admitted she may have misjudged the suspect&#8217;s intentions.</p>
