Marquez Parker, 44, was armed when he abducted 30-year-old Selita Lee against her will at gunpoint, outside of their apartment on Van Ness Street, DC police said.
Parker apparently tried stuffing Lee in the trunk of a Gold Ford Fusion but instead put her in the cab. The car was found in the 3500 block of Ames Street NE unoccupied.
