On a warm Monday, Jenny Neilson bought a sandwich and parked her car under some trees. Rolling down the windows to
36 in fresh air, she settled back to enjoy her lunch. Suddenly she 37 a big bald(秃顶的)man running through the parking lot. Before she came to
38 what would happen, the man was there, shouting through her window. “Get out!”
Neilson
39 .
Pulling open her door, the man seized her
40 the neck and hair, and threw her out of the car onto the ground. She screamed,
41 her purse and the keys.
Two reporters of the local newspaper, Robert Bruce and Jeff Jackson, just outside their office building on a
42 , heard the screams and began running.
When they
43 Neilson’s car, the attacker had jumped into the driver’s seat and was
44 searching for the keys. Bruce opened the door, and he and Jackson dragged the man out. The attacker
45 back. But even in his cornered panic, he was no
46 for the two athletic men.
Reggie Miller, a worker of the local newspaper, heard the screams, too. He rushed back to the office to
47 the police, and then ran back with some plastic ropes —— used to tie up newspapers.
With his arms
48 tightly behind him, the prisoner looked up and said
49 , “I hope you guys feel good about yourselves – you just caught one of the most wanted men.” They
50 him and waited for the police.
Later, Bruce and Jackson were shocked to learn the man was the
51 carjacker(劫车者) and suspected murderer, whose
52 —but with a full head of hair – had been recently printed in their own newspaper.
Neilson considers herself lucky
53 she suffered injuries. She believes the story might have had a
54 ending if those good people had not come to her aid. “Unfortunately,” she says, “many people would
55 have done what they did, and that is the real truth.”
