Shocked shoppers tried to step in to help when they believed a kidnap was seemingly taking place in an Asda car park. Hull Live reported that people at the store in Kingswood saw a van driving erratically and at speed.
Suddenly it stopped and a woman got out screaming for help. Then a man, later identified as Shaun Chapman got out and threw her in the back before speeding off.
A court was told that when Chapman, 41, was arrested he was charged with kidnap, assault and dangerous driving. However, Hull Crown Court was told that lesser charges of affray and careless driving had been accepted by the prosecution.
