“It was two or three in the morning and I couldn’t find a cab. A car kept coming round and offering me a ride, so I accepted. Once in the car I noticed there were no door handles on the inside, which made me wary. I don’t know how, but I managed to put my hand through the window and open the door from the outside.”
Debbie Harry recollecting her narrow escape from a serial killer, who offered her a ride home on a rainy night in New York before she was famous. He began swerving the car to stop her escaping, but this only gave her the momentum to throw herself out of the moving vehicle. She thought nothing more of it afterwards until years later, when she saw the same driver on the news. It turned out to be Ted Bundy, who had confessed to the killing of at least 30 women.
