I just had the scariest experience of my life.
I'm visiting a friend in Naples, FL. She invites me on a walk to her brother's house in nice neighborhood, broad daylight, maybe 30 minutes through quiet residential streets.
About halfway there, she turns to me. "Dude, there's a white car following us." I look back. A white BMW, hanging behind us at walking pace. I shrug it off. We're two grown women, broad daylight, beautiful neighborhood who's going to kidnap us? We keep walking.
We hang at her brother's for 20 minutes. By the time we leave, it's getting dark. Around 8pm. Two blocks into the walk back, we run into one of her friends and his son. We stop and tell them about the white car as a joke. "You're not going to believe this a white BMW was following us earlier." We're laughing. They're laughing. We say goodbye and keep walking.
Five minutes pass, the same white BMW pulls in behind us.
We start walking faster. There are no other cars on the road. Just him. We speed up,he speeds up. I look at my friend. She looks at me.
We start running.
She calls her husband. He's home with their two kids asleep, he can't just leave them. The BMW keeps pace. Minutes feel like hours.
Finally, a young woman pulls into her driveway. We wave her down. The BMW pulls up next to us, rolls down his window, a man, late 20s… says something we couldn't hear, and drives off. We explain our situation and ask her if she can drive us home.
Now this is where the story gets crazy.
My friend texts the neighbor we'd run into earlier, the one we'd told the joke to. A few minutes later, his reply comes in.
He'd asked his son about the white BMW.
His son told him the same white BMW has been parked at their bus stop the last two afternoons. Just sits there when the kids get off.
Never picks up a single kid.
We are very, very lucky to be home safe tonight.
To anyone in Naples, FL please be aware. White BMW. Male driver, late 20s. Be safe out there.
