I work for a Landscape company. Several days ago while I was doing an inspection on a commercial property, a woman caught my attention. She was crossing a busy street, approaching from a residential neighborhood.
I see people walking around all day long and really never give them a second thought. But this woman caught my attention. She is older, mid to late 60's and well dressed. She seemed to be holding her hand as it became evident that she was walking towards me. That is when I saw the blood stains on her white slacks.
I went to her. She was terribly shaken, and had a very nasty wound on her hand. She asked for my help, saying she had been kidnapped and the man tried to rape her.
I took her to my truck, helped her to a seat on the tailgate. I fetched my firstaid kit out of the truck as i dialed 911 on my cell. I spoke to the operator who in turn wanted to talk to the woman. As she spoke to the operator I tended to her wounds. Evidently she had been shopping and upon eturning to her car a man forced her in and demanded the keys saying he would kill her if she didnt comply. They took off as he demanded her jewlery and cash. She explained she didnt carry cash and that seemed to piss him off, telling her that since she had no money that he would just have to rape her. She said he began to grope her as he drove and that she resisted. That is when he cut her with the knife he had. Figuring she was going to be trouble he dumped her in the neighborhood.
While she was on the phone I was able to flag down a patrol car. The officers took statements, etc. My time to care for this woman ended with them. I gave her and the police my card saying they could reach me anytime if needed.
Yesterday i was watching the evening news a story reported that the man and the car had been found. After a shace the man was arrested and was now in jail. Hearing that made my week. I cant help but feel a huge sense of pride. I was happy to help. Glad i was of comfort to someone in need.
It just made this a very special week for me and I had to share it with the world. What better place to do that than here?
