PENN HILLS, Pa. — A man who is a driver for a rideshare company, as well as a college professor, is accused of holding two women against their will.

Richard Lomotey, 36, is charged with kidnapping, harassment and false imprisonment. He is free on bail while he awaits a court appearance next week.

According to police, two women who got in his car after calling an Uber escaped his car and were screaming for help.

Lomotey was allegedly supposed to drive the women from Homewood to Penn Hills on Saturday morning but started to drive away from the route.

The victims told police he was making inappropriate comments before he pulled over, locked the doors and said, "you're not going anywhere."

No, no. Burger King is where you go with your Liberal Arts Degree in Wymens Studies, Sociology, or African Cultures.

So you are predicting that Uber may expand their driver selection criteria to define those willing to service nymphomaniacs. .. sure.. in their dreams.

Adjunct professor. Earns less than minimum wage, no benefits, so the university can spend on bureaucrats.

Hey, stupid uber-driver. I’m not trapped in the car with you. You’re trapped in the car with me.

Life or death situation, that’s my attitude and plan and I’m sticking to it.

"Hello, ladies.  Hop in.  Where ya goin'?"
"We're going to Hooters where we work."
"Oh, man.  Excuse my while I lock all the doors.  It's for your own safety. Say, have you ever heard of the Story of O?"
"Is it about Cheerios?"
"Is it a Sesame Street episode?"
"No, the Story of O is about a guy doing nasty stuff to a girl, like I'm gonna do to you..."
"Stop the car.  Let us out!"
"... starting with a quote from Rime of the Ancient Mariner..."
"Help, help!"
"... and then you're going to write me an essay."
"Just shoot us, please!"
