From Henrico Police:

The Henrico County Police Division is requesting the public’s assistance in identifying a vehicle and persons involved in a possible abduction.

On July 22, 2018 at approximately 4:00 p.m., Henrico Police responded to the 200 block of E. Laburnum Avenue for a possible abduction. A witness reported she was sitting at the intersection of E. Laburnum Avenue and Carolina Avenue when an adult female exited a black Range Rover SUV and approached the witness’ car asking for help. The witness let the female in, and as they drove west on E. Laburnum, the Range Rover followed. The witness pulled into a convenience store parking lot in the 200 block of E. Laburnum Avenue where the driver of the Range Rover got out and forced the female back into the Range Rover. The Range Rover then drove off and was last seen heading eastbound on E. Laburnum Avenue.

Detectives are investigating this incident as a possible abduction and are attempting to identify the persons involved to verify the circumstances. The video (attached separately) depicts the events in the convenient store parking lot. Descriptions of the vehicle and females are below.

Vehicle – Newer model black Range Rover SUV with Virginia temporary registration

Driver – Black female, heavyset, light complexion, wearing black shorts and a white t-shirt

Female/Victim – Black female, average build, wearing light blue nursing scrubs

Anyone with information on this incident or the identity of the vehicle or persons involved is asked to contact Henrico Police at (804) 501-5000 or Metro Richmond Crime Stoppers at (804) 780-1000. Citizens can also download the “P3 Tips” app to their mobile devices and submit their tip. Both Crime Stoppers methods are anonymous.
