Late in the morning on December 28, three people from Roseburg, Oregon, were driving locally in a Chevrolet Avalanche. A 54-year-old woman was behind the wheel, and she was carrying two male passengers, both aged 32. They reportedly came across someone driving an RV, and the woman allegedly slammed into it with her vehicle and tried to run it off the road.
The driver of the RV and the woman driving the Avalanche pulled to the side of the street and stopped their vehicles. The men in the Avalanche reportedly got out of the truck and entered the RV without permission. While inside, they allegedly put a rope around the driver’s neck and pulled him outside. One of the men allegedly continued binding the man with the rope, while the other reportedly took the RV and parked it down the road.
