A Pinellas County woman’s video in which she describes being trailed by a man in an area Publix has been watched nearly 2 million times and shared more than 70,000 times on Facebook.
In the video, Lynne Knowles describes being followed and recorded on video by a strange man in a local grocery store. She says when she loudly confronted the man, asking him what he wanted, he left the store, where he joined up with two other men she says were waiting in the parking lot. She believes this may be a tactic used by human traffickers in the west central Florida region.
Knowles describes similar situations she and her friends have experienced or heard about, and issues a warning to women of all ages to be alert at all times.
