Dad Murders Man who Groped his 4-Year-Old Daughter

Town residents support father killing man who inappropriately touched daughter.

A Texas man, whose name has yet to be released, beat a man to death who was groping his 4-year-old daughter this past Saturday, according to the Victoria Advocate.

The father allegedly hit the man in the head repeatedly after he found him groping his daughter in a barn. The man, whose name won't be released until next-of-kin is notified, died at the scene. He was 47-year-old.

The father and daughter were at the barn with several others tending to horses. The father then stepped away and heard his daughter screaming for help a while later. He came in and found the man sexually assaulting his daughter and killed him.

The young girl was taken to a local hospital for evaluation.

Friend Mark Harabis reiterated this: "I agree with him totally. I would probably do worse."
