Myrtle Beach police are investigating a report of an attempted kidnapping last Thursday at Broadway at the Beach.

A woman told police she was walking on 21st Avenue North near Oak Street when a man parked at a bank parking lot asked her if she wanted a ride.

The woman told the man she wanted to go to Hard Rock Cafe to eat and got into his gold/tan 4-door Chevy. She wasn't sure of the model.

The woman told police once they got to Broadway, the man drove around the outside loop several times. She said the man told her he was married with three kids and he worked in construction, including several building projects at Broadway.

The woman told police the man then pulled into a parking space in front of Hard Rock Cafe, she got out and the man got out with her to give her a hug.

The woman said the man then put his hand over her mouth and tried to force her back into the car.

A witness heard the woman screaming and told police he saw the woman being forced into the car.

The man then took off in his car.

The man is described as white, 5'6", 220 pounds, dark brown hair with gray, missing two bottom teeth on the right side. The man was clean shaven and was between 37 and 40 years old. He was wearing a silver colored wedding band.
