Woman Grabbed While Jogging on Natures Way

The man ran away after the woman started screaming.

In the middle of the morning today, a woman and a friend were jogging on Natures Way near Elton Place. That's when a man jumped out of the bushes and grabbed her arm, according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office.

The woman screamed, and the man let go of her. Then he ran away and got into a white pickup truck with a Tampa Bay Buccaneer logo on the rear window, the Sheriff's Office wrote in an email to Patch.

The woman called 911 shortly after 10:30 a.m. to report the incident and detectives responded to the scene to collect more information and evidence.
