While I was jogging, a utility van pulled even to me, slowed to a near stop, and opend the sliding door. A guy was crouching in the doorway. Another car came by and they sped off. :noway:

    Did the van say "Free Candy"? If so, be sure to tell your neighborhood kids about it so they can get some too

    If this is an actual real post then yes, you most definitely should report it. Do it NOW before you forget the make, model, description of the person crouching in the back etc.

    And why on earth would you come to a public forum to ask whether or not you should report something like that? Do you honestly think that it was no big deal?!

    Then why the frack are you on a message board asking whether or not it should be reported? You should have picked up your phone and dialed the police immediately and reported what happened instead of turning on your computer and going to MFP to ASK if it should be reported.

    I mean seriously?!:huh:

    Holy crap, glad you are okay. Definitely report it. When I was jogging on my lunch break last year, some dude in a postal service van pulled up to me and was asking if I had a boyfriend and saying how pretty I was. Luckily, he drove off and that was the end of it. Why are there so many creeps in this world!?

    So abductions only happen in the middle of the night to poor people who live in the city?:huh:

    Well, if you think it's ok because someone said it wasn't a big deal then don't report it.

    I personally would have reported it because it's just way too creepy and weird.

    Definitely report!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you could help the next individual by reporting!!
    Be careful jogging! dont go same rout all the time and always let someone know exactly your route! Maybe even carry pepper spray! Don't go late at night! Possible jog on busy street areas where lots of cars!!!! My daughter was assaulted when she went jogging and she stopped for a second to tie shoe. A man grabbed her from
    Behind and held a knife to her neck and demanded money. It was in the evening on a Friday so not good but it was just a short neighborhood jog and it happened very quickly! when he realized she had no money
    He turned her around and socked her hard in the face causing her to fall, she then shoved
    Him really hard almost making him fall and then took off running! she made it home! He told
    Her she was luck!!!! Very very scary!!!!
