Story highlights Guards apprehend boy, 15, headed toward Shia mosque in Kirkuk, official says

ISIS known to use children as weapons

(CNN) A boy stands shaking in the street. Fear etched across his face. Two men flank him on either side as a third rips through the boy's Barcelona football shirt to reveal what appears to be an explosive belt.

The Iraqi security officers grip the boy tightly. A small slip of the hand and the boy could reach the trigger and all four would die.

This was the dramatic moment Iraqi police stopped Hussein, a 15-year-old suspected in a suicide bombing attempt for ISIS in the Iraqi city of Kirkuk on Sunday.

"Let me go," the boy whimpers. The officer shouts back: "We will take you down and go to God together."

Footage appears to show officers restrain the visibly upset boy while they carefully but expertly cut the belt from the youth's torso. Once the belt has been removed, the boy is scooped up into custody.
