A woman was allegedly grabbed at a park in Victoria last week after she rejected a man’s offer to get food with him, police say.
At approximately 6 p.m. on Nov. 3, a woman was at Pioneer Park when a man she didn’t know approached her and asked if she wanted to get something to eat with him.
According to the Victoria Police Department, the woman rejected the man’s offer and had begun walking away when the man allegedly grabbed her and demanded she come with him.
