A Kentucky high school junior named Cody Hardin intervened when his female classmate was getting harassed.

A high school student in Kentucky is being hailed a hero after shielding a classmate from an attempted abduction, according to the Boone County Sheriff’s Department.

Margitza then grabbed the victim by the arm, and when she pulled away, he followed her, only stopping when a male student intervened. Once inside the school, the victim reported the incident. “He said, ‘Let’s talk about this. I’ll give you all the money I got. Let’s go to the hotel room and talk about this. Let’s talk. Let’s talk,’” Cody recalls to local news station WCPO.“He tried to take a step in the door, I grabbed him by the neck and didn’t let him step in,” Cody told WCPO. After his classmate successfully got inside, Cody continued to block the entrance of the school. “I made sure that door was closed, I was making sure he was not in the school before that door closed.

“If Margitza got inside of the school, who knows how this would have played out,” says Lt. Ridgell. Although Cody told WPCO that he was shaking after the altercation, that, “[he’d] do it any other day for anyone else.”
