An illegal alien from Honduras is facing a slew of charges after he kidnapped a woman at gunpoint in Texas then stole her car and drove it to Oklahoma, authorities say.
The harrowing incident unfolded at around 4:45 a.m. on Dec. 24 in Haltom City, located in the Dallas-Fort Worth metro region.
A 22-year-old woman was walking through a parking lot at her apartment complex when a male suspect accosted her and forced her into her vehicle at gunpoint.
The suspect ordered the woman to withdraw cash from a nearby bank and then drove her to another residential complex in Grapevine, some 22 miles away, the Haltom City Police Department (HCPD) explained in a press release.
The victim was briefly restrained but managed to escape on foot and alert HCPD about her predicament just after 8 a.m.
On Dec. 25, a police officer on patrol located the suspect and stolen vehicle in a parking lot in Oklahoma City.
35-Year-old Eduardo Javier Ordonez Godoy was arrested and hit with charges by authorities in both Haltom City and Oklahoma City.
