Police looking for kidnapping victim and suspect after incident caught on doorbell camera

Woman screams ‘help me’ as she bangs on stranger’s door before man drags her to car

A suspected kidnapping victim has been captured banging on a stranger’s door begging for help in video footage recorded on a doorbell camera.

Police in Las Vegas are searching for the woman and her suspected kidnapper after a homeowner spotted the incident on their camera.

In video footage released by police, a woman can be heard sobbing as she runs up a footpath to a front door while a man gets out of a white car stopped in the road behind her.

The woman bangs on the door screaming “help me” as the man catches up with her and grabs her before throwing her to the ground.

The victim can be heard shouting “please” as the man says “why the f*** did you do that” and kicks her in the stomach, sending her flying down a set of steps.

The pair struggle on the ground as the attacker tells the woman to get in the car and eventually drags her off towards the vehicle.

Police say the incident took place near Warm Springs Road and Interstate 215 at about 12.45am on New Year’s Day.

The victim is described as a white woman, about 20 to 30 years in age, with dark hair and was last seen wearing blue ripped jeans, a dark long-sleeve shirt and dark boots.

The suspect, who appears to speak with an American accent, is described as black, about 20 to 30 years old with short black hair, and was wearing a white shirt with dark coloured horizontal stripes, dark coloured pants, and brown dress shoes.
