Man posing as Portland police officer abducts two women after concert
"A man who posed as a Portland police officer is sought in the kidnapping of two women after they left a Snoop Dogg concert late Thursday at the Roseland Theater in Portland's Old Town.
According to police, a man approached the women as they were walking to their car, parked in a lot at Southwest Second Avenue and Ash Street. He said he worked for the Portland Police Bureau and needed to escort them out of the area so they would not get stopped for driving drunk.
Both women, who are in their early 20s, declined and got into their car.
The man stayed in the area and went back to the women. This time, he warned them that if they drove away, police were waiting for them, and they'd be stopped.
He cautioned them that their car likely would be towed if they left it in the lot. So the women allowed the man to drive their car after he said he'd get them home.
Instead, the man drove on Interstate 5 south to Marion County. He took the Detroit Lake exit and stopped the car on a gravel road....."
