Ohio Father Arrested After Allegedly Luring Daughter’s Rape Suspect and Shooting Him

Ohio Father Arrested After Allegedly Luring Daughter’s Rape Suspect and Shooting Him

A 31-year-old father in Grove City, Ohio, has been arrested after allegedly posing as his 11-year-old daughter on TikTok to lure a man suspected of sexually assaulting her. Police said the father, Malik Chandler, contacted Diego Montoya Gonzalez through the child’s account and arranged for him to come to his home. Chandler said he intended to hold and beat the man until police arrived, but claimed he shot him twice after believing Gonzalez was reaching for a gun. Gonzalez was hospitalised and later charged with rape, child sexual-abuse material offences, and obstructing official business. Chandler is being held on a $100,000 bond over the shooting.

The report describes a devastating situation: an 11-year-old child, a suspected assault, and a father whose response has now led to his arrest.

Anger is understandable, but the allegation should still be investigated through the courts rather than treated as permission for a shooting.

The priority should be protecting the child, preserving evidence, and ensuring police and prosecutors can pursue the alleged assault properly.
