Armed creep ties woman to tree on hiking trail near famous Pebble Beach Golf course

A twisted creep tracked a woman trough the woods, pulled a gun and tied her to a tree near the famous Pebble Beach Golf course, leaving cops on the hunt for a suspect with a neck tattoo.

Hikers found the uninjured woman after hearing loud crying from the wooded area, which is surrounded by famous country clubs and massive wealthy homes on the Monterey Peninsula in California, on Wednesday morning, according to SFGate.

Two Good Samaritans untied the woman and called the authorities, according to the outlet.

The victim told investigators with the Monterey County Sheriff’s Office that she noticed the suspicious man following her down the trail as she hiked at around 7:30 AM.

The man then pulled out a gun and tied her to a tree in a secluded area off the trail that runs through the Monterey Forest, according to the sheriff’s office.  He then headed off without further harming the victim.

The man had a distinctive neck tattoo featuring the letter “Z,” the woman told investigators.

The victim was found safe and unharmed and was not robbed while being tied by the perpetrator.
