CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — A quick-thinking woman was able to save herself from a bad situation Sunday night.

CCPD Lt. Mel Goce tells KRIS 6 News that a woman in her 30s was able to alert staff at the Flour Bluff that she had been kidnapped.

"She was writing little notes and giving them to employees to call the police that she was kidnapped," Goce said.

She told police she had been taken because she testified against some suspects.

Police arrested two suspects, one male and one female, who attempted to flee from officers.

Charges are pending against the pair, as CCPD continues to investigate.
