BlackBerry Saves Kidnapped Woman

Here’s a story where a woman was kidnapped and then saved because her neighbor left his BlackBerry in her car.

For most people, losing a cell phone or Blackberry is annoying and inconvenient, but for one Pennsylvania woman, a lost Blackberry was likely the difference between life and death.

On Sunday evening 57-year-old Mary Wilkerson of Susquehanna Township, Pa., went to dinner with her neighbor Robert Scott and his wife. Wilkerson drove that night, and when Scott returned home later he realized he had left his Blackberry in Wilkerson’s car.

The next day Wilkerson’s son called the police — his mother had vanished from her home during the night.

When investigators asked Scott if he recalled anything suspicious, he remembered his missing Blackberry.

“I began to talk and I said, ‘You know, I think my Blackberry is in Mary’s car,’ and they said, ‘Oh my God, that’s all we need,” Scott told “Good Morning America.”

Using the BlackBerry’s signal as a homing beacon, police worked with U.S. marshals and were able to track down Mary’s car on Tuesday. They found it in an alley about eight miles from her home.

Some people just don’t care for the well being of others. I hope the “group of masked men” get brought to justice.
