Lamaurice Jenkins is accused of invading the woman's home on 19th court... Forcing her to drive him around town... And then locking her in the trunk of her own car.

Some people in the neighborhood can't believe it. They describe the elderly woman as a very outdoorsy, sweet lady who was nice to the children in the neighborhood.

Dale Mccue a neighbor had this to say, "Well, i feel that it's a tragedy and i feel that that really did it. You think before they do stuff, no one wants to be locked into a truck or a car for sure. But i think that we need to take a little time to let all elderly people know the world has changed." "i have a grandma and a mom that is someone grandmother and mom who were put in a trunk of a car. That's wrong, man." said Danny Herby another neighbor. Police tell us this: The home invasion happened early Monday morning, and that the elderly woman woke up to find a strange man in her home. He then robbed her and forced her into her car where she ended up in the trunk. The woman, who has not been identified, was later freed and suffered minor injuries. The suspect, Lamaurice Jenkins is charged with burglary, kidnapping and motor vehicle theft. His bond has been set at $1.3 million dollars.
