Surveillance video captured the moment that a pimp battered a teen girl in a parking lot in Texas. Thankfully, onlookers confronted the abuser and helped the teenager escape the dangerous situation.

In January, Ricky Stevenson brought a 17-year-old girl to a nail salon in Plano, Texas. As they were leaving, the two engaged in an apparent argument. Stevenson stomps his foot. Then the 29-year-old Stevenson punches the girl in the face – causing the teen to fall to the ground and hit her head.

The girl lays helpless on the sidewalk at Plano's Shops at Legacy. A man who witnessed the assault walks toward the situation.

Stevenson snatches the teen off the ground, drags her, and then forcefully shoves her into the passenger seat of a Cadillac. He slams the car door and races to the driver's side while the witness stands nearby.

The teen opens the door and tries to run, but Stevenson grabs the sex trafficking victim and violently tosses her back in the car.
Now, more witnesses gather around the commotion.

The girl exits the vehicle again, but now there are too many people watching for Stevenson to continue his abuse. Stevenson speeds off.

Law enforcement finally arrested Stevenson.
