(WPVI) — Philadelphia police have released video of a woman’s abduction in Germantown – and now say it appears to be a random kidnapping.
The missing woman is identified as 22-year-old Carlesha Freeland-Gaither.
The video shows the incident at 9:40 p.m. on Sunday on the 100 block of West Coulter Street.
You can see someone park a 2000-2002 dark gray metallic 4-door Ford Taurus with Pennsylvania plates by the street.
A man in a hooded sweatshirt gets out of the car and goes out of view, but then comes back dragging Freeland-Gaither.
She is seen struggling against her abductor while being dragged down the street.
Police say she kicked out both rear windows just before the car sped away.
While audio was not released by the surveillance video, investigators say it was clear that Freeland-Gaither did not know her abductor.
Because of the seemingly random nature of the case, police have called in the FBI for help.
