A 39-year-old woman was almost abducted Monday by an unknown man as she got out of her car in Sterling.
The woman, according to Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office reports, was approached by the man about 12:40 a.m. in the 120 block of North Fillmore Avenue.
After a short conversation, the man grabbed her, forced her into the backseat of her car and held her down. The man let the woman go when she screamed, according to reports.
The man is described as Hispanic, 5 feet 9 inches tall with a medium build. He was last seen wearing a black shirt and black pants. He was reportedly driving a sky blue older model car.

Prepare to read about more of these attacks as the population shifts, and coupled with the easy access that Metro provides into the area. It happened in Springfield within months of the completion of their station, and Vienna was a victim of the same circumstances upon it’s completion of the end of the Metro line. Look it up. We just gave the criminal element easy access to pickings.
Usual suspect; same description as the Montgomery county, DC, and Arlington attacks in the last few months.
Duh, sorry didn’t see Fillmore Ave
LTM, where in Sterling was this?
