UPS driver helped free prisoner
A UPS delivery service driver, who found the scribbled inscription “call 911”, helped the police to release a woman from captivity in his own house, reports CNN.
The driver called the police after he made a scheduled stop to pick up the package from his home in Robertsville, Missouri. On the call, the special forces arrived, where 33-year-old James Jordan was arrested, police said.
As reported by his wife, he did not allow her to leave him. He punched her, forced her to undress and raped her. At the moment when the driver arrived, Jordan was holding a pistol at his head and threatened to kill her and then himself.
He was talking to the driver, standing behind her with a gun. Somehow she managed to write her request for help on the packaging, according to court documents.
Jordan's wife said that all this time, while her husband was mocking her, her 3-year-old child was locked in a bedroom without food and water for 15 hours.
UPS has praised the role of its employee in the arrest of Jordan.
“Our drivers are very familiar with their routes and are trained to be aware of their surroundings and respond to requests for assistance.”
Jordan is accused of domestic violence, the illegal use of weapons and the threat to the welfare of the child.
