She caught up with Flynn a few blocks away, cornered him and kicked him in the crotch when he resisted.

Investigators also believe Flynn was involved in another incident on the North Side on Isabella Street earlier that same day. A woman reported a young white male lifted up her skirt and ran off.

KDKA-TV’s Brenda Waters talked to several people who frequent the trail, including Lois Thomson who walks to work there every morning.

Waters: What do you think about her fighting back?
Thomson: I think it’s wonderful, wish I had the capacity to do that, that’s terrific.
