Neighbor Tells How He Discovered 3 Missing Women

To the neighbors of the 52-year-old man connected to the case of the three missing women found a decade after their disappearance, everything about him seemed normal. That all changed on Monday when one neighbor, Charles Ramsey, heard screams coming from that Ohio home, which prompted him to investigate and discover the three women. "This girl is kicking the door and screaming," Ramsey told NBC station WKYC-TV. "So I go over there ... and I say, 'Can I help? What’s going on?' And she says, 'I’ve been kidnapped, and I’ve been in this house a long time. I want to leave right now.'" Ramsey, who lives across the street and allowed the woman to use his phone for a 911 call, said he was shocked when he realized the woman in distress was Amanda Berry, a local teenager who disappeared 10 years ago. Two other women were with Berry in the house: Gina DeJesus, 23, who had been missing for nine years, and Michelle Knight, 30, who had been missing for 11 years. Some of the man's other neighbors were equally shocked. "We never thought that man would do anything to anybody," one neighbor told The Plain Dealer.
