ARLINGTON, Va. - Police in Arlington now say no crime was committed after searching for two men who seemingly abducted a woman in a North Rosslyn neighborhood Thursday evening.
Around 4:36 p.m., officers from the Arlington County Police Department were called to N. Colonial Court at N. Colonial Terrace for the report of a possible abduction.
Upon arrival, officers learned that a witness observed two men exit a gray SUV and stop a woman as she was walking down the sidewalk. Police said the men removed the woman’s backpack, brought her closer to the vehicle and the three entered and drove away.
An additional male who appeared to be associated with the other two men told a witness it was an "exercise."
