The driver of the vehicle on May 18 pulled over and approached a 20-year-old woman walking near Church Street and McBryde Avenue. He told her he had a flat tire, then stuck a gun in her midsection and told her to get in the vehicle. However, they both fell to the ground and the victim began screaming, prompting the gunman to jump back into the vehicle and drive away. The victim ran a short distance and called 911.

Gusman is described as white, 6-foot-2, 180 pounds, brown hair and brown eyes. He was last seen at about 7:45 a.m. Monday in Mason County on the Matlock-Brady Road driving the Avalanche.
