It’s sad when we women can’t even go out without a gun or a baseball bat. Maybe we are forgetting to take care of each other. If I were that woman I would have kept on driving until I could get to a service station or something.

Good advice G. I would never pull over for anyone flashing lights or pointing. I can see my gas portal from the side mirror and if it is open, so what. I can always close it when I get somewhere safe. If I have a tire problem, I can feel it in the way the car responds to the road. A cell phone is a great aid in situations like this. I hope they catch the culprit soon as there are many young and elderly people out there who do not read this column and won’t have a clue about this man.

Do not pull over. In this day and age, use your cell. Dial 911 to report, or just pick up your phone and act like you are, you will surely get a reaction as to if they are real or not when they see you on the phone.

Would someone PLEASE! comment on what this story is really about. In one day in two separate incidences two women, one in Atmore, one in Walnut Hill were mugged by the same guy. NOW that is a problem. At three o’clock on Tuesday he was still not apprehended. Please, at this time refer back to Lee Williams comments.

you people make me sick!!!!!!!!!! enough about the cops, they sometimes have less than 30 seconds to make a life or death decision and STICK WITH IT you have the rest of your life to think and belittle a person who has stepped up and put on a uniform and taken an oath to Protect and Serve. Something you probably would never give a second thought too. there was a poem out one time call “Lousy till you need one” you people fit that profile to a tee. I put on a uniform everyday as a Paramedic/Firefighter, everyday I make decisions that are life threatening or life changeing, you know what, once that decision is made you have to stick with IT or lives will be changed quickly so unless you are willing to put that uniform on and do that job, then I think you have no RIGHT to say anything. And as far as this person goes if he will do this to our elderly people what will he do to others?

I thought THIS article was about two women having the unfortunate event of trying to be robbed or even worse hurt?

If someone attempts to pull you over you should keep driving to the nearest well lit, populated shopping center you can find where there’s people coming and going. Don’t stop out in the parking lot; pull right up in front of the store. If there is someone trying to harm you, believe me, they are not going to follow you to the front of the store where they can be identified.

This is why I am glad I have a concealed weapons license! But I will still not stop for a stranger where there is no one else around! I hope they find him.
