Volusia County Sheriff Michael Chitwood joined "Fox & Friends" after arresting an 11-year-old girl who faked a kidnapping as part of a YouTube challenge.
"We are so far behind the eight-ball on what social media is doing to our children and the path that it's leading them down," Chitwood said Friday. "The federal government has to step in and put some type of roadblocks in place." Elizabeth Heckman is a digital production assistant with Fox News.
The incident began at 9:45 a.m. Wednesday when the girl texted 911 that her 14-year-old friend was abducted by an armed male driving a white van on South I-95 in Oak Hill.
