She told fans on TikTok: “We got a paedophile arrested. I literally cannot believe what we witnessed. It was honestly like a movie or something.”
Mal, who was with a friend at the time, was approached by a group of young boys close to a London park who complained about a “creepy man”.
Concerned for their welfare, Mal walked towards the park area in Little Venice, London, to see what was going on for herself.
“Moments later we clearly see that this guy is not okay,” she continued.
“He’s standing by the park swaying, like putting his hand into the park over the fence and trying to high five this little boy who’s about five years old.
“We kind of wanted to distract him and see what he was doing or saying.
“We then saw a mum with her daughter, like a little 3, 4 year old girl who is on a scooter. This guy tries to grab her from behind and the dad jumps in between them both.
“He then goes into the park where there’s a lot of young mums with their like 3 year old girls who are obviously feeling vulnerable and scared.
“So I call 999 and I’m literally so impressed with the police and how fast they came.
“When the officers arrives I was running up to them shouting ‘he’s going to get away, he’s going to get away’.
“I felt like I was in a movie. I’m like running.”
“The police arrested the suspect and Mal was interviewed alongside other witnesses.
“This is happening in London and I just think you have to do something. You can’t just watch. It was crazy.
“He better be put in for time. Like this is not okay.”
Proud Mal added: “Sorry for the long video, but we put a paedophile in jail.”
