DETROIT, MI – A chilling incident unfolded in broad daylight on Detroit’s west side when a mother and her adult daughter were abducted at gunpoint. The alarming event occurred around noon on Friday, leaving local residents in disbelief.
Detroit police received a distress call reporting the kidnapping on the 14500 block of Trinity Street. Witnesses described how two armed men forced the women into a vehicle, setting off a chain of events that would lead to a dramatic police intervention.
