Abbotsford, BC – April 30th, 2025 – Early yesterday morning, April 29th, at around

5:30 am, a woman was waiting for a friend in the 33900 block of Gladys Ave when a
lone male driving a white Tesla Model 3 approached her and asked her to get into his
car.

When she declined, the man, described as a heavy-set Hispanic male, in his 30’s to
early 40’s, approximately 5’8” tall, with black hair in a ponytail, wearing a black tank top,
dark grey shorts, and flip flops, forcibly made her enter his vehicle.
