As they were leaving the store, the child told her father what happened, and the father went to the manager. The two reviewed surveillance footage from store video cameras, which reportedly confirmed what the girl alleged.
The father reportedly stopped the man when he tried to leave and held him until police arrived at the store. Gonzalez, at that point, allegedly pulled out a pocket knife and told the dad in Spanish: "If you hit me, I'll stab you."
