I left the house about an hour ago to come back to the office. When I turned on to the street towards town there's a car following this girl walking down the side of the road. It's raining, visibility sucks and I can't see much but for some reason it seems...wrong. So I go down to the other end oif the street and turn around.
Car is stopped, guy is out next to the girl. He jumps back in the car and drives off, turns around in my parking lot at the front end of my property and heads back. I pull in the lot, can't make the plate on the car so I sit and fire up the Suburban's lights(KC's everywhere) when he pulls back up with the girl. I can see the car, then her walking ahead of it and him pulling up again. Again nothiung much seems to be happening. Then she heads into the cornfield on their right, in front of me at about 200yds, and he gets out.
I pull back out and when I turn onto that street again he's back in the car and drives off. I drive by and can't see her so I follow him up till he pulls in a drive to turn around again. I block him and again try to get the plate and make of vehicle. No go, and I can't get the spotlight on him. This is also when I realize I've left the .45 at home and literally have nothing, not even a pocket knife or tire iron. SO I pull off, he backs out and heads back. I go down a bit and turn around again in another side street. Another truck does the same behind me, so obviously I'm not the only one that thinks something is up.
When I drive back he again is out of the car and she is on the street. Again he gets in the car and drives back to my place to turn around. At this point I try to get her into the truck and to the police station. She's crying but flatly refuses. I can't just haul her in the truck against her will so I again pull off, follow him into my lot and he again ducks out. The other truck pulls by him and stops, but then drives off.
OK, enough. I don't have a cell phone and have no idea what I am dealing with so no way am I driving up to my house and leading what might be either merely an upset teen or a complete loon on Meth to my kids. I make a beeline into town, forcing him to drive off again in the process, and call it in.
So I'm now sitting here feeling like I just abandoned a girl to God knows what. With no means of contacting anyone and no weapons available at all should I have stayed? My gut says yes but common sense says no. I could have stuck myself in a harmless situation of two pissed off teens. I could have put myself in front of a crazy whose size and state of mind I know nothing about... I do know if something bad goes down I am going to feel like a complete piece of crap, to put it very mildly. I'm frankly disgusted with myself and am not certain even why.
