Of­fi­cers of the North East­ern Di­vi­sion res­cued a woman from a ve­hi­cle in the La Fil­lette dis­trict and ar­rest­ed a 22-year-old El Do­ra­do man fol­low­ing a re­port­ed ab­duc­tion on Mon­day.

Ac­cord­ing to a Trinidad and To­ba­go Po­lice Ser­vice (TTPS) me­dia re­lease, the vic­tim was at her Diego Mar­tin home around 7.05 pm when a man known to her ar­rived and asked to speak with her.

When she re­fused, he al­leged­ly grabbed her, lead­ing to a strug­gle, dur­ing which time she ob­served what ap­peared to be a firearm tucked in­to his waist­band. The re­lease stat­ed that the vic­tim man­aged to push the man out of the house and lock the door. How­ev­er, he al­leged­ly re-en­tered through an un­se­cured kitchen win­dow and searched her bed­room for her cel­lu­lar phone.
