From the link in the OP:

A 20-year-old west Tennessee woman who was last seen being dragged from her house by a man dressed in camouflage might have been abducted in a home invasion Wednesday, authorities said.

Holly Bobo's 25-year-old brother told investigators that he saw the man dragging his sister across the carport at her family home and toward a wooded area, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said.

Very scary. I haven't seen a description of the perp or possible vehicle either.

In one article I read, her brother was inside the house when Holly was abducted. I'm sure he did not just stand there and watch. If he did i'm sure it was because he was in shock and disbelief.

or he could have been tied up.

There is already a thread on Holly.

In one article, it was stated that a neighbor was the witness...

If she was being dragged across the carport It makes me wonder if her hands and feet were not bound. I'm sure she would have tried to get away if she could have, which makes me think somehow she was not able.

Or the perp had a weapon.

The neighbor told police that a man wearing camouflage grabbed the young woman, dragged her across her carport and pulled her into some nearby woods.

Authorities are now searching the area. The sheriff said they've been searching a five mile square radius on the ground and by air, but have yet to come up with anything.



No mention of search dogs, but I have to assume/hope they are using them. Especially with a fresh trail.

Praying she is found safely.

This article says the man carried her into the woods

In the video at this link - the reporter said that she was walking to her car when she was abducted - so which is it? a home invasion? or abduction from her driveway?

This is quite scary!! Hoping for good news!
