New surveillance video shows the harrowing moments a young teen girl narrowly escaped her captor who police say kidnapped and repeatedly stabbed her. A source who wished to remain anonymous, shared the video with Fox News Digital.
The suspect is an illegal immigrant who is now facing a rap of charges related to the incident that happened at a home in Baltimore, Maryland. It all went down just three years after the suspect was let into the country during the Biden administration.
The Baltimore Police Department says Abubakarr Barrie, 23, is accused of stabbing the 15-year-old girl inside a home. Multiple reports say he worked as an unlicensed cab driver.
The Department of Homeland Security says Barrie picked the victim up and took her “to a basement property that he was renting at the time.”

In a statement, DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said, “This tragedy would never have happened were it not for the multiple failures of sanctuary policies. First, Biden’s open borders let this monster into our country, then sanctuary politicians in New York refused to hand him over to ICE and released him after a previous arrest three months before this horrific crime. DHS is urging Baltimore County authorities to learn from sanctuary New York’s mistakes, honor ICE’s detainer against this illegal alien, and prevent him from harming any more Americans.”
