And another attempted attack/abduction in the Northern Beaches area.
"The 28-year-old mum said she took a slightly longer walk than usual because her son wasn’t with her on Sunday.
She said she was on Panguna St when a dark grey SUV started driving up and down the street near her before the erratic behaviour ramped up."
“On the fourth time he’s come back towards me and actually swerved at me. I was on the grass and it was only half a metre between me and the car,” she said.
“He was driving so fast that, if he had managed to hit me, I don't think I’d be here today.”
She said the driver, who she described as petite and of Indian appearance, stopped the car and flashed the headlights at her.
“I walked past him quite briskly and he’s gotten out of the car. As I’ve walked past he approached me.
“Once he was in my space, he asked me my name and he’s put his arm out to shake my hand.
“Stupidly enough, I’ve shaken his hand and he’s grabbed me with force.
“It was tight enough that I felt I had to pull away, it wasn’t right.
“I was really lucky that I had some essential oils and body butter on me at the time, so it was really slippery in the rain.”
Ms Weinmann said he yelled after her for some time, asking if she lived nearby or if she regularly jogged in the area.
“He zoomed past me again, then leant out of his passenger window with his phone out saying he needed help,” she said.
“He looked crazy. His eyes were really glassy. He had this smile on his face that was really eerie.
“That’s when I ran.”
