A Ring Doorbell caught the moment the woman ran up to a residence and bangs on the door. Seconds later, a man jumps out of a white sedan and runs up to her. He then throws her to the ground and kicks her in the stomach as she falls down the home’s front steps.
The kidnapping incident was captured on a home surveillance video at 12:48 a.m. on Wednesday, Las Vegas Metro police said. The victim and her alleged captor have not been seen since and their identities are unknown.
“Why would you do that?” he yells.
“Stop, stop, please,” she sobs as he hauls her away by the hair and drags her to the car.
Investigators described the victim as a white woman with dark hair who is between ages 20-30. During the attack, she was wearing blue, ripped jeans, a dark-colored long-sleeve shirt and dark boots, reports MyFox8.
