Officers are searching for a Jacksonville pizza delivery driver's car after she was forced into the trunk at gunpoint then jumped out of the moving car on I-10.
Police said a man abducted the driver, who is a mother, after he ordered pizza to an abandoned home on Lane Avenue around 7:45 p.m. on Saturday.
Officers are searching for her 2007 Silver Mazda MX3 with tag 794MPY.
The man told the woman he needed her car to drive to Lake City to kill someone, police said.
He was headed to Columbia County when two people saw the woman throwing items out of the trunk in Baker County.
She pulled the escape lever in the trunk and jumped out while the car was going around 50 miles per hour, according to police.
She was taken to a hospital in Macclenny. She suffered road rash and a head wound, police said.
Police said the suspect is in the woman's car. He is 5 feet 11 inches tall and has a rifle, police said.
