Woman Kidnapped As Bystanders Look On I can't believe things like this still happen...I understand that it's a hard call to get involved in other people's business, but in this age of cell phones, how hard could it have been to simply get the license plate number and call the police? People scare me sometimes. Not just the kidnappers, but the people who did nothing about it but rubberneck...
http://story.news.yahoo.c..._abduction CORONA, Calif. - Two men were caught on a mall's security camera as they chased a woman through a parking structure, then grabbed and stuffed her into the trunk of a car. Nearby shoppers seemed to notice the apparent abduction, but none attemped to stop it. Police on Thursday were still trying to determine the identities of the woman, believed to be in her 20s, and two men involved in the Sunday evening incident at the Corona Discount Mall. The woman's videotaped reaction upon seeing the men suggested she knew them. Detective Frank Zellers said the incident was being investigated as a kidnapping. "It's very discouraging right now and it's really difficult for us, because we don't know who the victim is," he told KCAL-TV. "And it's obvious that some kind of crime occurred. We don't know who the suspects are and who the victim is." The department had received several calls from witnesses and others in recent days, but had no solid leads, Officer Jesse Jurado said. He said investigators had not yet ruled out the possibility that the incident was a hoax. A security camera with a view outside the front of the mall recorded the scene as the woman walked from a parking lot to the sidewalk outside the entrance. When a black Toyota Solara raced up and braked, the woman looked over her shoulder at the car and took off running into a parking structure with the vehicle in pursuit. Despite a fuzzy videotape image, the woman can be seen running down a parking aisle as two men jump out of the Solara and chase her. One man threw the woman over his shoulder, carried her back to the car and put her in the trunk, which the other man had opened. A security guard at the mall heard the woman yelling for someone to call the police as she was being stuffed in the trunk, Jurado said. A handful of shoppers visible in the foreground of the scene appeared to turn their heads and watch the incident. In addition, several motorists drove through the scene. The car's right front tire was a smaller, spare donut-type tire, police said. Corona is a Riverside County city of 138,000 about 40 miles southeast of Los Angeles. | |

WTF, how can the cops readily assume that this incident was just a hoax?? And for shame on those bystanders for not notifying the police and for just letting this incident happen.  RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

Man, that is just messed up. This past Sunday something like that heppened here in Philadelphia. A young female medical student came out of a Whole Foods Supermarket 1:30 in the afternoon. As soon as she came out, a man jumped up and beat her to death with a baseball bat and no one did anything to stop it. Couldn't beleive it when I read that.  | |

Well, if he had a bat I would think twice about actually jumping in the middle of it. Keeping my eyes open and dailing 9-1-1 would be about it. | |

I wouldn't jump in front of a bat wielding maniac, either, but South Street (where it happened) is a very crowded street and I KNOW there were plenty of people. I would think maybe a few people could have jumped him from the back and tacked his animal ass to the ground. | |

Iraqis Attacked By Saddam As World Looks On
Oh, wait, we're doing something about that right now... When the sunlight strikes raindrops in the air, they act as a prism and form a rainbow. The rainbow is a division of white light into many beautiful colors. Regardless of the day, I'm glad you were born. | |
