A 13-year-girl who was kidnapped in Texas and driven to Long Beach was able to make a "help me" sign on a crumbled piece of paper - and it ended up saving her life.
The teen's alleged kidnapper repeatedly sexually assaulted her while driving her to Long Beach, according to federal prosecutors.
"Something [was] wrong with his eyes ... scared when he looked at me," said Vong, who recalled seeing fear in the girl's face.
While Sablan was away, the girl -- still in the car -- wrote "Help Me'' on a note and showed it to people passing by, prompting one of them to call police.
Responding officers found the girl, and she mouthed the word "help'' to them, according to prosecutors.
