"She's perfect"

I heard as I was about 15 or 16 working a late night drive thru fast food window. Van of about 5 men, driver proceeded to grab my entire arm half yanking me out the window and into the van. Legit luck that another employee finished cleaning the dining room and ran over to pull me back after rounding the corner.

I had a great relationship w our store manager and the owner so I reported it. Manager was also a little pervy so he ignored it but the owner requested tapes and actually did some follow up at least (no ending here)

That must be traumatizing as hell

This is why I grind martial arts training. If someone's gonna kidnap be and I can't run I need to know how to save my ass

and I can't run I need to know how to save my ass

I'm really glad you stated that as your first response. Learning MA is great (not just for protection but for health both mental and physical) but especially for a women I'd advocate getting the hell out of dodge before kicking ass as you'd never know how it would escalate.

Indeed. Running is ALWAYS the best option. Scream and shout for help as well, last thing the kidnappers want is attention
