A chilling surveillance video captures the moment a woman was almost kidnapped in St. Augustine, Florida, with the suspect now apprehended and facing charges.

On June 29, state police arrested 31-year-old Theodore Michael Tundidor, who is charged with kidnapping, robbery, and grand-theft auto, as stated by the St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office (SJSO).

The sheriff’s office reported that deputies were dispatched to a business around 3:30 p.m. that day after a 911 caller indicated a man was trying to force a woman into a vehicle in the parking lot.

Video released by the SJSO of the attempted abduction shows the man forcibly dragging the woman toward his gray pickup truck while holding her in a headlock.

State Fish and Wildlife Conservation (FWC) officers later located Tundidor driving recklessly near Marineland on the A1A. He allegedly fled, but was ultimately captured by FWC officers.

Along with charges from the sheriff’s office, FWC charged Tundidor with driving under the influence and fleeing and eluding law enforcement.
