An Auckland woman fought off a man who pulled her into a car, before three good Samaritans stopped to help.
Police are looking for the three women who stopped to give the distressed victim a ride after the attempted abduction early on Sunday, April 2.
Between 2:30 and 3am the victim, described as being in her mid-20s, had just gotten out of a taxi on Dominion Rd near the intersection with Mt Albert Rd.
Avondale Detective Sergeant Richard Sami said a dark-coloured vehicle stopped next to the woman.
A man, believed to be the sole occupant, got out of the car, dragged the woman into the back seat and threatened her.
