This is going on in Petaluma, CA right now. A mom claimed people of color attempted to kidnap her children. She describes the eyes of the "perpetrators" below. Fortunately, according to the police investigation, her children were not in danger, from the people who were reported to the police.

There is a lot of speculation about transpired given conflicting video, police statements and eyewitness accounts. Mrs. Sorensen has since deleted her social media accounts and stopped giving interviews. I saw her appeal to mother's to be more guarded with their children:

“There is no other explanation as to why they were doing that besides they were just building the courage,” Sorensen said. “The gentleman looked at me, and his eyes were huge. He saw what was going on, and I just yelled for help.”

Been quite a few of these. At least one turned deadly.

I suspect some of the paranoia is related to the QAnon nonsense.
