Horrifying moment 'creep tries to KIDNAP bikini-wearing barista by pulling her into car from drive-thru window'

This is the horrifying moment a man allegedly tried to kidnap a bikini-clad barista from a drive-thru window.

Ezekiel Guerrero, 19, of Tacoma, was arrested after he was caught on surveillance camera attempting to pull a young woman through the window after she handed him his drink at Ladybug Bikini Barista in Lakewood, Washington.

He aggressively grabbed her hand and pulled after taking the drink in his other. The woman, who was not identified, can be seen moving to brace herself against the window, with her face slamming against the glass.

She managed to get her body behind the glass, but Guerrero held tight to her hand and was seen with half his body out of the car.

The attack was so forceful that the barista’s shirt was torn. The attack only ended after she managed to get the window closed.

She was left with red marks on her wrist, bicep, and shoulder.

Police managed to track him down a few days later using his credit card receipt.

He told police he let go of her once she yelled ‘help.’

‘When she said ‘help,’ I let go. And I got out and, uh, I didn’t, I didn’t escalate nothing,’ he told police, according to KIRO 7.

Guerrero tried to justify his actions, saying it was a ‘mistake’ and he had only stopped at the hut to see a ‘pretty girl’.

‘It was just a bad night for me. I’m sorry… I don’t even know why I even showed up there, bro. Like, I was drunk, I was upset.’

Guerrero claimed he got in a fight with his ex-girlfriend and was drunk or high when he went to the bikini-clad establishment.

‘Honestly, I didn’t mean it, like that’s not me, I promise. Like it was just genuinely a moment that I had that I wish I didn’t,’ he told authorities.

The teen was charged with attempted kidnapping and released on bail. He pleaded not guilty.

The barista said she was ‘really upset’ to hear he had been let go.

‘I’m honestly just really upset that since he’s young and it’s his first offense that he got no bail, or house arrest,’ she told Fox 13 Seattle.

‘If he’s committing violent acts like this at the ripe age of 19 years old, I’m not too confident that he won’t do that again to someone else who might end up less fortunate than I did.’

Daily Mail has reached out to Ladybug Bikini Espresso for comment.

Disturbing acts by men are increasing at bikini coffee shops, including a man who rolled up with his pants down at a Tempe, Arizona store in early January.

Nautica Malone, 27, was caught in a Bikini Beans drive-thru with no pants on. Malone had arrived to the drive-thru and was approached by an employee who noticed he did not have on pants and informed a manager.

When he reached the drive-thru window, he was still pants-less when he met the manager, who began filming their interaction. The manager told police Malone was masturbating when he pulled up to the window.

He was told to leave and the store called 911. Days later, he took his own life.
