CLACKAMAS, Ore. (AP) — A Beaverton woman escaped with the help of a passerby after her ex-boyfriend shot at her car along Interstate 205, kidnapped her and brought her to Washington state, sheriff’s deputies said Sunday. The woman, Yesenia Vehar-Fombona, 26, showed up at the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office on Saturday afternoon to describe her ordeal, deputies said in a news release. Her ex-boyfriend, identified as Jose Guadalupe Pinedaleon, has been arrested and is scheduled to be arraigned Monday on charges of attempted murder and kidnapping. It was not immediately clear if he had an attorney. Vehar-Fombona said her story began at about 3 a.m. Saturday as she was leaving work at a sports bar in Milwuakie, and her ex-boyfriend, whom she had recently dumped, followed her to her Lexus. He implored her to take him back, according to authorities, and he chased her along Interstate 205 after she drove off.
