Details released in Thursday’s I-75 carjacking

Two women and a child were in a car and a woman was assaulted. She was then forced to drive around the man that carjacked them.

WINK News went to the victim’s home today and attempted to talk to Milagros Chirinos. She didn’t want to go on camera. She just recalls “they were trying to kidnap me.”

Now, other drivers are on edge and paying attention to their surroundings with the suspect still on the run.

A report from the Lee County Sheriff’s Office laid out the timeline of events for the carjacking.

Deputies say the two women in the car were heading north on I-75, towards Orlando. However, they got stuck in traffic due to a car fire.
