Love hits the road

Every guy knows how it is when he’s seeing a girl whose parents don’t like him. You get the dirty looks, the snide remarks, you even catch a bit of your girl yelling at her parents about how you do in fact have a job and you are very proudly working at the office building downtown–as a janitor. Such is young love.

Something else young love can be: a one way trip to Northern California.

A young man from outside Los Angeles got his on his girlfriend’s mom’s bad side–so much so that she recruited a friend to drive over to his house, where they tried duct tape him and haul him up to NoCal, where, presumably, they were going to leave him. The cops arrested the two women on kidnapping charges.

Police said later the girlfriend was arrested, too, for trying to convince her boyfriend not to testify against her mom and her mom’s friend. Wonder what her bargaining chip was.
