WCVB-TV in Boston said Shine allegedly grabbed the child while she was riding her bike in her neighborhood and then shackled her ankles.
"She was shackled with an official piece of equipment, the kind you may have seen on prisoners going in and out of courthouses," said Hanover Police Chief Walter Sweeney.
Shine is to be arraigned Monday in Plymouth County court.
