Police track down possibly kidnapped woman in Eindhoven thanks to golden tip

The woman whom the police feared was kidnapped in Eindhoven on Friday evening has been found. The police tracked the woman down after a golden tip. She is in good health, police said on Saturday evening. It is not yet clear what exactly happened.

Police received a report of an argument between a man and a woman at a movie theater on Dommelstraat in Eindhoven around 6:10 p.m. Friday. According to witnesses, three men then forcibly pushed the woman into a blue Citroën C2. The car was parked behind the VVV building on Septemberplein 18. Afterwards, the car allegedly turned right from the parking lot into the Vestdijk tunnel and then continued in the direction of Neckerspoel.

On Twitter, the Oost-Brabant police were looking for clues under the hashtag #HELPMEE to help solve the alleged kidnapping of the woman.
