She was able to get the door open and run home.

Police said the incident occurred around 1 p.m. Tuesday in the area of Ash and West Hollis streets.

"At this point, we believe the victim was random," said Nashua Police Lt. Robert Page. "The victim was forced into the vehicle and was able to open the door and run home."

He also said surveillance video matches the girl's story.

Katrina Brogna is a friend of the girl. She said, "she had the chance to get out, she jumped out, did a faceplant on the ground and then she just ran to a friend's house."

The driver is described as a Hispanic man in his early 30s, with green eyes and a goatee.

Anyone with information is asked to call Nashua police.
