#NBCNews #Drivethru #Barista
I learned what a barista is today.
F*ckin creeper.
WOMEN BE ON GUARD AT ALL TIMES. Men are crazy. We are the overwhelming majority to have crimes committed against us. This girl is WORKING AT A DRIVE THRU and dude tries to snatch her 🤯
…And please stop leaving your windows open. Especially living on the first floor. BE SAFE FEMALES.
I bet he has a daughter too 😒
Who gets a Chevrolet tat on their arm that isn’t mentally effed up
He was just gonna drag her through the window? He clearly didn’t think this through.
Thankfully.
Stoopid A F.
Just off him and be done with it, make this world a better place instantly.
Great job to the public working together and speaking out to catch the perp. Progress is quick when we work together. See something say something!
These whte folks are out of control
On top of this being horrible, its just plain stupid! Honestly what was his plan, drive through usually have camera, and employees will instantly notice if shes gone…..
it’s hard to think like someone like this but, to me, it looks like she was a target, not random. it would be a lot easier to grab someone walking down the street than pull someone thru a window, why make it harder? that poor young lady, she will have to live with the fear for the rest of her life even if he goes away for a long time. it’s never going to go away for her
Why no bars in the window ?! Now you know why we got them out here
At least he left a large tip.
he’s like me fr
We have a lot of nut cases out here 😒. What was he thinking? 🤔 . Drag her through the window? I’m glad she was able to fight back and she is ok
So glad they found that psycho he’s probably done it before
Looking forward for that monster to be exposed!!! 😡
The one girl on the news has worried but she has nothing to be worried about. 🤣🤣 That guy was after that other girl to traffic her, but the girl in the news isn’t that pretty, so she’s automatically safe. I’m glad they caught the guy, but the other girl shouldn’t delusion herself
But nothing actually happened so this MF is probably already back on the street.
Had she been armed and shot it would be justified
So desperate their trying to grab you from drive thru windows smmfh
This happened to me at my first job ever at 14. Had it not been for my coworker grabbing me from the inside who knows what would have happened to me? I’m glad she’s ok and I’m glad they caught the sonovabitch
How strong you gotta be???Even if she was petite 70-90lbs ( young girl) to pull that much weight from a seated position over a waist high counter, while the weight is kicking and fighting….seem impossible even if zip tied!
C’mon, the law ain’t going to do squat. But throw in a fraction of meth, cocaine, yup 10 years+.
How desperate and sick and perverted can you be to even think of something like this! If he tried this he’s probably abducted or assaulted people where it would of been much easier than trying to pull a grown person tru a small window , off the ground in a public place!
The police department should let the father of the girl kick a field goal to that guys Nuts………
I dont get how he could of pulled her out of window, seems literally impossible to pull 200 pounds through small window especially while sitting sideways
I was hit by an 18 wheeler while stopped at a red light an he got away scott free so how was this lady injured ?
First, must I mention that women shouldn’t be paraded like this. Why are you serving coffee in your underwear?
You know there are idiot’s like this out there.
You’re not serving coffee at a tittie bar!
The sad thing is how many women has this sick peace of cowcrap has he actually kidnapped. So many people go missing everyday in the In United States, it’s no telling how many young girls he has done this too.
Still don’t know why they won’t say the coffee shop girl is only wearing lingerie. The owner runs a business that has young girls dressed in lingerie serving coffee, what did they think would happen. The guy was creep. The owner put her staff in danger buy not allow the girls to wear a proper uniform.
He be out the next day that is how lousy our laws are.
😳… Oh my Dear God… All the devil is busy!
How was he going to pull her through the window? Smh
Evidently he may had done this before… trying to abduct/kidnap a person. I’m so glad the employee was not abducted and hope she will get justice. If he had zip ties ready, imagine what else he could have in his truck….knife…rope/ect.
People like this can’t be rehabilitated. I’m sure they’ll only give him a few years in prison.
Thank God. I hope the young lady is ok
Never go out alone, especially at night. This applies to all genders. It’s better to be paranoid. Remember to check your car before you get in. If you’re leaving a store and feel scared, ask an employee to walk out with you. Buy some self defense sprays and alarms off Amazon. Get yourself a firearm…I know I sound insane but people are getting tooooo comfortable doing this. This is the 3rd video I saw today of an attempted kidnapping. And during the age of smartphones and cameras it’s even more scary to think they just don’t care and will try and harm you.
Pepper spray, cameras, panic buttons? Girl, please. I will melt his face like a candle with that hot, scalding coffee.
How scary, poor girl. Glad he was arrested. I will tell as a young girl/teen, I weighed, maybe 100 pounds, he could easily pulled her out of the window! Thank God she was able to pull away.
I don’t understand what the plan was. He saw the outcome of this differently in his head because there was no way this was going to work. He was not going to pull someone through a drive-through window while he sat in his car and zip-tie her hands. Both her hands were never going to be in his reach to zip-tie them, but he thought that would work. That is crazy, not insane, just crazy. I want to know what they do with this guy because he is a danger to the community he lives in. EDIT: They say he was trying to put it around her neck and that was going to work either, but as I said, he saw this outcome differently in his head.
This is beyond disturbing. Someone on social media recently posted about a guy following her friend with a rope after he got out of a van and I thought maybe she was just being paranoid, but now I’m wondering…
He so lazy to get out the car he tried Drive thru kidnapping instead
🤣🤣🤣
He wanted his hamburger rare.
What a CREEP!! Who knows how many times, he’s done this and gotten away with it. I’m sure it wasn’t the first time.
We are so happy everyone is ok and he’s in what a horrible man I hope they check his DNA against old cases
Glad he was caught.
Seems about Whyt
I believe that a lot of people are missing another point here and that is that now Vulnerable children, young girls and Women can NO LONGER step out of your home today to put out your trash after dark because Kidnappings have been on the rise to the point where folks are literally snatching Babies from Mothers arms in broad daylight off the street and in grocery store parking lots.
Also be warned that many Women are also teaming up with Men to Exploit young children, young girls and Women !! Would have been nice if the Barista had a cup of Hot Water to toss in his dam face !!
Grabbing a hot coffee pot would’ve been my objective.
I want to see what lame excuse his lawyer comes up with. I hope those prisoners make his life miserable
Camera on license plates.
Yet another whyt predator.
Was he trying to abduct only her arm?
Did he think he could pull her through the window and into his car window or what? This is just weird af.
Now all of the potential wrong doers watching this knows about the panic button and pepper spray. Some things should not be exposed for safety reasons.
Rarely will a victim be saved by a coworker, a compassionate samaritan, etc. You have to save yourself. Don’t be a victim. So what can you do to protect yourself, your loved ones, kids, babies from loosers, angry dogs, etc.? I recommend carrying pepper spray. When used properly, it is 100 percent effective against thugs, bad dogs, sexual predators, and creepy people. It also stops ignorant behavior with a single push of the button.
Pepper spray is actually more effective than a taser if you practice deploying the spray quickly and into the face of the looser without spraying yourself and innocent bystanders. Buy two and use one to practice. When you’re at work, shopping, getting gas, take note of your surroundings. If you feel uncomfortable hide your hand in your purse, pocket, shopping bag while holding the pepper spray
.Take note: If it’s breezy and you have to deploy it, spray with the wind, not against it or you’ll be the one with pepper spray in your face. Don’t assume it only happens to those other people in those other towns. Creepy people are everywhere and they know how to drive.
Wonder how many kidnappings, murders, rapes, etc. they will link this animal too. Ah, well. Time to bring back next-day-execution.
This man is very, very dangerous and he should go to prison for a long, long time
Get a gun. Learn how to use the gun. Carry the gun.
It’s weird how his face isn’t plastered all over the news. Mhmm, I wonder why 🤔😒😑💯
It’s uo to these employers to help protect the workers now left ladies mix the drink and a man stand at the window. No more allowing women to work the graveyard shifts that should be a law. If they are going to work graveyard shift their os alaw where security guards are hired to protect them. See them off safely to their cars. These devils who are caught attempting and or following the act through should not ever be allowed out into society again.
The bar is a well known prostitution joint
That poor girl. She’s just trying to make a living. I hope that guy gets jail time!
How scary to think you could be snatched right out of a drive thru window. Thank God she was able to pull away from that evil monster🙏!
What a sicko
stupid people that don’t deserve to be free. The law protects them too much when they should obviously be locked up for good
Honestly can yall keep yall destructive husbands and sons at home this makes no sense, I have sisters that work in customer service jobs and I let all the jobs know. If my sisters get hurt trying to start they lives for school and such. Ima air this place out. Cause ik about these meatheads who dont treat these folks like humans ( and ik women to my experience men get alot more hot headed more often)
A zip tie lasso?! He was hunting.
He’ll be booked for 5 if we’re lucky and be back on the streets in two on good behavior. We need a prosecutor that can throw an entire book at this sick freak. He was going to molest, mutilate and murder this little lady.
You funny know the truth. She stole from him
Omg !! What was his master plan here ? Zip tie her and pull her out the window…?? and in his car ? Luckly he had this tattoo on his arm for easier identifications.
Don’t worry. he’ll be released on $50 bail tomorrow.
She did say coffee tea or ME
Do not let him go or the next woman will not be so lucky. Life in prison or death are the only options here
Auburn, Washington. Where one of those J6 proud boys used to live, with his mom. He’s in jail now.
It’s a crazy liberal world.
When describing the security measures, I was glad you thought it best not to mention the flame thrower just below the window! I’ll never tell!
People are getting bolder now, even in day light.
Courts, fines, jails don’t work…….morgues do
Oh this makes so much more sense now… when I first heard about it they just said she was a barista did not mention the bikini part and let me tell you they are wear less than a bikini…and no that doesn’t make it right.
Caveman tactics don’t work man. Put him in the cave and put a bolder on it. 😡
Somebody please wipe down that panic button and make just make sure the window is smaller than the barista.
String him high on the courthouse for all to see. No telling how many he had planned to try this on.
PLEASE GIVE HIM AS FULL EXTENT OF THE LAW…NEVER FORGET SAMANTHA….
It’s looks like horse play. He grabs her arm and slaps her with a tie wrap and leaves a nice tip on the ground and drives off.
2nd video I have seen in 3 days of someone trying to drag a woman from her place of employment for God knows what reason. You’re not even safe on the job now.
So he tried to kidnap her through the drive though window
I wonder if his neighbors are missing pets
He should be behind bars but, men are like this because women think it’s okay to dress provocative in public when they know men like this roam around. They put them selfs at risk. It’s my own opinion but, women have a lot to do with it. Cover up dress classy not slutty and maybe see less men getting turned on sexually. Again he should be behind bars
you should probably be behind bars too
hopefully he “reaches for an officers gun” if ya know what I mean.
THANK YOU TO ALL THOSE GOOD PEOPLE WHO CALLED IN WITH TIPS!!!! Law enforcement cannot find these sickos without the community helping identify who they are. It’s like trying to find a needle in a haystack.
This guy is the sickest…of the sickest….of the sickest. If he is not a sexual sadist, he’s a human trafficker. She looked so tiny, and those predators want TINY YOUNG FEMALES they can more easily control. They especially love a ponytail they can grab when you’re out jogging or walking your dog.
Young ladies, BE CAREFUL….and be EXTRAORDINARILY careful if you’re 5’2″ or smaller. CHILLING. Absolutely CHILLING.
TRUMP SUPPORTER
What exactly was he trying to do with that zip tie thing?
His name is *MATTHEW* *WILLIAM* *DARNELL*
ALSO HE WAS TRYING TO SELL HER INTO HUMAN TRAFFICKING ACCORDING TO EVIDENCE FOUND ON HIS PHONE AND COMPUTER
What is wrong with men, there is more and more unthinkable behaviour. Stop watching pornography it is not a reality… it is sick fantasy of psychopaths.
Not very bright are they? 🤦♂️
Scary!
