A 32-year-old Monmouth County man has been sentenced last week to five years in prison for grabbing an 11-year-old girl around the waist at a McDonald's in Maryland, according to a report on CecilDaily.com.

Authorities said Barry Emmanuel Dadamo of Neptune was under the influence of drugs when he wrapped his arms around the girl while she was standing in line at the restaurant in Elkton on June 12, the report said.

Two men in the restaurant pulled Dadamo off the girl and held him at bay until police arrived. Dadamo was rambling incoherently and shouting at employees before he put his hands on the girl, the website said.

Dadamo didn't know the girl or her mother and prosecutors said they admitted that he didn't intend to kidnap the child.

Dadamo, who previously had 17 minor criminal convictions, will also serve five years of probation. He was sentenced Friday in Cecil County Circuit Court.
