West Midlands Police are appealing for the public's help to trace a woman who was seen arguing with a man before being placed into a car. The suspicious incident happened in Birmingham around 5pm yesterday (22 February).
The woman was spotted looking upset following the argument at around 5pm on Bunbury Road, near to the junction of Overbury Road, Bournville before the car sped off towards Northfield.
Enquiries continue in a bid to trace the car, its owner and the man who is described as Black.
The woman is described by witnesses as Black, in her 20s and wearing a short light coloured puffa jacket.
Detective Inspector Gareth Snyman, from Force CID, said: “The incident took place during rush hour on a very busy road, although we don’t have any images or CCTV to share at the moment, we’re appealing to anyone who was in the area at the time who might have seen something to get in touch.
“We have been carrying out house to house enquiries and are continuing to trawl CCTV for any clues that might show what has taken place. This includes clarity on the make and model of the car.
“Our main concern is this woman’s safety. We would also appeal to the woman to get in touch if she sees this, so that we can make sure she is ok.”
