Story of the Week: A Prince George’s County woman survival story is a miracle
Earlier this month, the search for a missing woman earlier this month in Prince George’s County went on for days until one shocking phone call changed everything. Come to find out the missing woman who disappeared was trapped inside her crashed car.
In the middle of a pandemic: a car crash led to a missing person’s case, which then became a kidnapping. When Park Police finally found the grandmother’s missing car, her family was told Shadone “Penny” Taylor was dead.
Taylor spent five days pinned inside her car, unable to reach her cellphone.
Back on May 2, she swerved her car to avoid deer on her drive to grab dinner at Checkers.
She crashed while driving on Suitland Parkway in Temple Hills, about a mile and a half away from her house.
Her family reported her missing to police and sent out flyers throughout the community.
Then, scammers contacted the family and claimed they had kidnapped Taylor and demanded 7,000 dollars. The family calls it a blessing in disguise because they got the FBI involved.
The agency was able to trace her cellphone.
Taylor’s car was found in a ditch, and the police notified the family with bad news and told them Taylor was dead. One of the investigators securing the scene heard a voice inside the car, and that’s when they called for a medevac helicopter to rescue her.
Taylor has since had six surgeries, but doctors have told the family she will make a full recovery.
As for the scammers behind the kidnapping ruse, police are still investigating.
