A beaten and bloodied woman was dragged out of a store moments after telling a clerk that she had been kidnapped. A major manhunt is underway for the man who dragged the woman out of the US store and into a waiting vehicle before driving off.
The woman approached a cashier inside a store that sells automotive parts on East Sibley Boulevard in Dolton, a small village in Illinois located about 21 miles south of Chicago.
She said a man she had met on a cell phone app was holding her captive.
Moments later a man burst into the store and told the woman “that was enough”, Fox 32 Chicago reported.

Officials said the man who pulled the woman out of the store was wearing an all-black jogging outfit and green shoes with no shoelaces.
After the woman was dragged out of the store, the clerk called the police to file a report.
Both Dolton Police and the FBI are investigating the incident.
Surveillance footage released by police shows a white vehicle, appearing to either be an SUV or minivan, driving away from the store.
