About 15 years ago, around 9pm, my wife walks into our business with a look of bewilderment. First off, she had headed home hours ago, to our acreage outside Hickman. I last saw her around 5pm when she went to do some shopping before going home.
When she got home, two men approached her car, and asked her for a ride to town. Frightened, she did not know what to do, so she agreed.
She let them out not far from our business. She was unharmed, and she never saw any weapons.
I quickly called the police, who found the house they went into, and were arrested. Arrested for what? They had ran from a police stop at Stagecoach Lake, over drinking beer in the park. They ran to our house, and my wife was their get-a-way vehicle.
Kidnapping charges? Nope. The police felt my wife did not do enough complaining, struggling or protesting, and that she was somewhat a willing participant, and they dropped everything except the beer ticket they ran away from.
I tell this story, to let everyone be on guard for men that might approach you. You never know what they may want, or what might happen next.
