A real kick

The Oklahoma family of Marissa Graham was celebrating over this weekend, because the 10-year-old had escaped from her kidnapper.

Authorities say Marissa was biking to a friend's house Thursday, when she was grabbed and thrown in the trunk of a car.

Her kidnapper drove her 200 miles, from her hometown of Texhoma on the Texas border.

But when her kidnapper stopped for gas in Clovis, New Mexico, Marissa -- who takes martial arts -- was able to kick her way out of the trunk.

She then walked into the store and calmly told the clerk she had just escaped. Police are calling her a brave young girl.
