No charges have been filed at this time, but the case is still under investigation.

Police released the video on Monday showing what they believed was a woman being abducted in southwest Houston.

The video was taken on Sunday, May 3, in the 2400 block of North Boulevard at around 10:15 p.m..

Investigators say witnesses reported seeing a woman possibly being abducted between Greenbriar and Kirby Drive near the Boulevard Apartments.

In the video, which was published to the Houston Police Department's YouTube account on Monday, a woman is heard yelling for help. Witnesses told investigators the woman was taken in a newer-model silver or white sedan, possibly a Honda.

Officers responding to the scene on Sunday were unable to track the driver down. According to police, the suspect was last seen driving northbound on Kirby towards the Southwest Freeway.

Police have not released more information on where the woman was found or how.
