Po­lice are on the hunt for two sus­pects who ab­duct­ed a bank teller af­ter she board­ed a car on a taxi stand in Rio Claro on Tues­day.

Ac­cord­ing to a re­port, around 6.15 am the 29-year-old woman was wait­ing for a taxi at the Rio Claro/Princes Town hub to go to work but de­cid­ed to trav­el by maxi taxi be­cause there were no taxis.

How­ev­er, po­lice said, a sil­ver-coloured Ti­i­da pulled up on the stand with a male pas­sen­ger in the front seat.

That’s when the bank teller came out of the maxi taxi and sat in the back seat of the car. The dri­ver drove off to­wards Princes Town along the Na­pari­ma Ma­yaro Road.

Po­lice said when the taxi got to Ram­rat­tan Tire Shop, San Pe­dro, the pas­sen­ger grabbed the woman’s purse con­tain­ing her iPhone 7 and oth­er items and or­dered her to lie down on the back seat with her head down.

The woman be­came fear­ful and com­plied.

Po­lice re­ports in­di­cat­ed when they got to Moru­ga Road, the dri­ver re­ceived a call and stopped the car.

He then came out to­geth­er with the pas­sen­ger and went to the trunk area.

Fear­ing that she was in fur­ther dan­ger, the bank teller told po­lice she grabbed her purse and es­caped by run­ning out of the ve­hi­cle.

She flagged down a pass­ing car and begged the dri­ver to take to her to the Moru­ga Po­lice Sta­tion where she made a re­port.

The po­lice viewed CCTV footage, in­ter­viewed sev­er­al peo­ple, and com­menced a search for the sus­pects.

How­ev­er, the men are still at large.
