SOLON, OH — Police pulled over a car for speeding on US 422, but found a sobbing woman, who claimed she had been kidnapped, in the driver's seat.

The incident happened Tuesday night, at approximately 11 p.m., according to Solon Police. A patrolling officer spotted a car on US 422 that had committed numerous lane violations and was speeding, so he pulled the vehicle over. When the officer approached the car, he found a woman crying in the driver's seat.

The woman told police her boyfriend had kidnapped her in Cleveland and demanded to be driven to Moreland Hills, where his mother lived. When the woman refused, the boyfriend dragged her from her apartment, forced her into the backseat of her car, and drove to the home, police reported.

After they got to Moreland Hills, the man went into the house and the woman drove off.
