Police are looking for any information on both the victim and suspect.
A woman was abducted by a man in a golf cart over the weekend in Philadelphia.
The incident happened at around 6:42am on Saturday morning, where the suspect was seen following an unknown woman in what police said was "a maroon and black colored Polaris Northstar XP 1000 two seat style golf cart."
A witness told cops the driver made one stop near a bank, discharged a firearm (striking the parking lot asphalt), before crossing the street and pulling his gun on the female victim. He "then grabbed her, shoving her into the front passenger side of the golf cart" and fled the scene, said the witness.
Below is a file photo of the golf cart in question. The vehicle is actually called a UTV, which can be used for towing trailers and navigating rocky terrain. Speed wise, it reportedly tops out at 65MPH.
