Date: Wednesday, November 4, 2009, 3:33 AMDear Warden,
We are re-sending the Warden Message as text (the previous email contained an attachment in Word 2007 version).
This Warden Message is to alert U.S. citizens in Romania that on Wednesday, October 28, 2009, a U.S. citizen was reportedly driving from Bucharest to Baneasa via the Matei Basarab, the shortcut between Pipera-Tunari and Ioncu Nicolae. At the turn to go south, a small blue sedan turned into the road and blocked the vehicle. The man driving the sedan then approached the blocked vehicle on foot and asked the driver if she spoke English. He told her he had been in an accident and wanted money from her. He held out a ring, as if he wanted to sell it. At this point another car approached the scene, and the man fled in his vehicle.
On Thursday, October 29, it was reported that the same blue sedan was seen on the side of Matei Basarab. An individual was seen outside the car holding a ring. He was heard to say, “Do you speak English?”
U.S. citizens are advised to be cautious around this area. If your way is blocked, try to back out and change direction. Do not stop, give an individual money, or exit your vehicle. Contact the Romanian Police at 112 if assistance is required. When driving remember to keep your doors locked and windows up. For more information please see our webpage on Road Safety.
