Not disputing the validity of post of this nature but about every 3 months I'll see a post on social media of someone claiming they were almost the victim of a possible attempted kidnapping. Often times it's in a shopping center parking lot where the alleged kidnappers were stalking them while they were in the store. I never see the news report on events like these, but curious to know if this has happened to anyone else? Cause it's very rare that you hear of a kidnapping actually taking place in B/CS……
I saw the FB post making the rounds about Academy incident (alleged). I told my wife I was a little skeptical and of course I got the "no, this is someone who knows a friend of a friend who said it really happened". These things get posted for clout or to perpetuate political fears. Bottom line is, keep your eyes on your kids and your head on a swivel. Also, if it was a true incident, it was a horribly planned attempt. Academy is the last place you should try to abduct. Everyone in there is either strapped or has a gun in their car. Plus 10-12 guys circling ? I'll eat my words if that was all true, but sounds like a slow summer day for moms on FB
