Woman Kidnapped at Knifepoint in Lincoln City

Police in Lincoln City Oregon are looking for a man who allegedly car-jacked a woman by knifepoint. The 18 year old woman was visiting the Tanger Outlet Mall when police say a man kidnapped her at knifepoint. “The male jumped in, and drove her to an isolated area in Lincoln City not far from the outlet mall.” Lincoln City Police Sergeant Randy Weaver says that’s when the woman’s fight or flight instinct took over. “Jumped out of the car and ran through a fence, through a very large field, actually dove through a barbed wire fence and ran to a nearby residence, where the folks heard her yelling and screaming.” Weaver said the man was following close behind, but took off into a wooded area when she got to those people.  Police searched, but did not find the man. He’s described as having red hair and no teeth. Call Lincoln City Police if you have any information on this case.
