United States Latest News, United States Headlines

Samantha MacIntyre kept her phone camera rolling as a man in a car followed her in rural Idaho.

But five miles into her run on a rural Idaho road, her lighthearted updates took a different turn. She said that a man in a red car had driven by her twice. MacIntrye explained that the man’s arm was out of his car window, and he kept looking back at her as he drove by.

It made her nervous, but she continued running.“I do not feel good about this. I have to run by this car to get back to my car though, there’s literally no other way around… It’s just one of those things where it’s like, you don’t think it’s going to happen to you until it happens to you. I don’t want to risk anything,” she said in her video, which has garnered more than 10,000 comments and 7 million views.As she contemplated her next move, MacIntyre saw the car pulling out. Visibly upset, she decided to cut her run short at 6.22 miles and call her parents to come get her. In the meantime, she asked a neighbor, whose house she passes often on this route, if she could wait in their yard. She also called the police, who were later able to“For the most part everyone has been super supportive and very nice about the whole situation,” MacIntyre. “Thanking me about kind of bringing light to this situation. Which makes me feel better, because it makes me feel a little less like I was overreacting and that other people have been in the same position as me and know how I was feeling.”
