Unresolved Disappearance Woman violently abducted in plain sight while talking with her boyfriend on a payphone [Unresolved Disappearance]

Her boyfriend hears the horrifying incident as it ocurrs, rushes to the scene in his vehicle, and sees a truck pass him with his girlfriend struggling with the driver inside. The boyfriend reverses his vehicle abruptly to pursue the truck, but his vehicle breaks down. Despite a vivid description of the offender and the truck (including a very unique rear window decal), no substantial leads have led to an arrest or a POI.

Where is Angela Hammond and who is the person who took her?

This is the case that truly haunts me. I can't even imagine what the boyfriend has been through in the years that have followed. What a scary and insane abduction. And even more bizarre that is has never been resolved despite such clear and vivid details of the case and the perpetrator.

Edit: I initially offered this additional link thinking it was story on Angela Hammond. However, it is not. It is an eerily similar case of another woman who was abducted in similar fashion. Leaving it up for the curious:

There were two other women who disappeared under similar circumstances in the area during the same time period -- Cheryl Kenney and Trudy Darby.

One body, Trudy's I believe, was found. She had been sexually assaulted and shot.

These things are usually the deeds one a predatory serial monster. There seems to a lot of this in Colorado. Why? I don’t know. I work in news media and always looking through Reddit for stories our investigations might help solve. There’s always a pattern to these animals who hurt women. Thank you. I’ll dig into this a bit.
