According to the old lady, she was told something terrible would happen to her if she did not get in the car. While inside the vehicle, the assailant demanded a sum of $10,000 and asked her to withdraw from her account.

The suspects then mentioned that they would give her $45,000 in return. They reportedly drove her to her bank, where she withdrew the said amount. The old woman did not inform the cashier that she was under duress.

In fear of her life, she kept quiet to avoid escalating the situation. She went back to the ladies in the car and handed the money over. The suspects reportedly copied her bank details.

The Anne Arundel County Police also had a case of robbery and the attempted kidnap of a woman.

They also gave an envelope of fake money before driving her back to an area in merchant's Square. After she got out of the car, the older woman went to a nearby business and relayed that she was robbed.

The pair of suspected robbers were identified as 61-year-old Sharon Sanford and 51-year-old Cha-Rae from Douglasville. Both have been taken into custody and charged on multiple counts.

As of March, the Miami-Dade police were on the lookout for a young man who was caught on surveillance, carrying out a nefarious act. Further reports show that he kidnapped a woman at knifepoint and robbed her.

The victim was about to enter her car when the man accosted her and had her in a chokehold. He then slammed her on the floor and tied both of her hands with a ziplock.
