Weird things happen when I go walkabout. Why people pick on me goodness only knows.
I'm walking down a main road when I see someone waving at me from the side street I am crossing. She has her head and shoulders stuck outside the back window of a car and is waving frantically.
I assume it's a kid from school. It's getting quite dark...hard to tell.
I walk on giving a quick wave and "hiya" back, but something doesn't seem right. I notice she is beckoning me, so I decide to get closer to see who it is.
On approaching the car, I notice it's a lady. Mid 30's.
She tells me she is stuck in the car, can I help her get out. It's hard to work out what she is saying as the light isn't good. I tried the door handles, but they were locked. She had managed to open the back window half way.
I get the essense of the story. They had been chased by the police. The 'coppers' had taken her 'boyfriend', and then promptly locked her in the car. She had managed to open the back window half way, but couldn't open it any further. Nor could she open any of the doors.
My first thoughts were, if the cops had locked her in there, perhaps there was a good reason? Why would they do that?
Perhaps she's a well known figure to them and she was hiding on the floor...they locked it without knowing she was there?
She said they knew she was there. She told me they said "You can stay there!" and locked the doors, put boyfriend in the police car and drove off.
Very odd, but she does sound convincing. Can't think of any other explanation.
She went on to say that she had been there 3 hours and they obviously weren't coming back.
So what would you do?
