Police in Oregon have arrested a suspect after he allegedly was captured on a doorbell camera kidnapping a woman at a home outside of Portland.
The Hillsboro Police Department, which released images of the struggle, said the woman was "caught on doorbell cam crying for help before she was picked up and carried away" by a male individual in the city late Sunday night.
