This Week in Bossier

You’re driving home from a long day…its awfully nice out.  Why not roll the windows down, retract that sunroof, let the winds of early Fall blow through your hair.  Just watch out for naked passers by who will jump into your moving vehicle and attempt to scratch your eyes out…

It was just before midnight Sept. 8. Moll and her husband, Cloyd Moll, had been in the car about six hours returning from a business trip to Austin, Texas.  And home was but moments away when they spied a naked woman, waving her arms above her head, in the middle of the parkway at Walker Road.  The Molls, thinking the woman could have been a crime victim in need of help, screeched to a halt.  The woman yelled that she was going to “die fighting tonight,” her declaration augmented by an expletive…As the woman lowered her 5-foot, 4-inch, 120-pound frame inside the car and into a straddling position on Eleece Moll’s lap, she kicked Cloyd Moll’s face, sending his glasses flying out the open window.
“The very first time she reached for my face, her fingernail penetrated my eye,” Eleece Moll said. “I knew from that point I had to keep my eyes closed.”

Meanwhile, Cloyd Moll blindly felt around for his cell phone. No cars had passed and it didn’t seem help could be summoned any other way, the Molls said.

Eleece Moll, still restrained by her seat belt and with her eyes closed for protections, was at a disadvantage. All the while, her attacker was cursing and saying she was going to fight until she died.

“She bit me for a full 15 seconds before she let go,” Eleece Moll said, then imitated the growling noise the stranger made while sinking her teeth into Eleece Moll’s right forearm, leaving two large bite wounds — one the size of a half dollar, the other a quarter.

Cloyd Moll said he finally located his cell phone, rolled out the driver’s side door and made franticly called 911.

His wife somehow remained calm and relatively still (to prevent her flesh from ripping). “God was with me, I felt like,” Eleece Moll said, adding that there was no other reason for her “incredible peace.”

After Cloyd Moll hung up with dispatchers, who asked what he said felt like a million questions, he ran to his wife’s aid.

He opened the door and tried to pull the woman off but her mouth still was clamped onto his wife’s arm.

“She lost interest in Eleece because she wouldn’t fight her, so then she came after me,” Cloyd Moll said.

“So I took her to the back of the car and slammed her up against the back of the car, hoping to break her back.” The impact put a small dent in the car, but “she got right back up and slugged the tar out of me.”

Still without glasses and basically blind, Cloyd Moll said he punched the woman. She staggered back a few steps.

But the only thing that prevented a retaliatory attack, he said, was the sound of Bossier City police cars screaming down the parkway.

The woman ran up a nearby levee and into woods, according to a Bossier City police report.  Officers saw the woman fall as they were chasing her. She was lying unresponsive on the ground when they caught up with her, the report states.

And remember kids, don’t do drugs.

Some girl, 21, of the 200 block of Lorex Street in Minden, was arrested at 11:40 p.m. Sept. 8 on one count of aggravated second-degree battery and was taken to LSU Hospital in Shreveport, according to the report and jail booking records.

Some girl, a Centenary College psychology major according to the college’s online records of students applying for graduation in spring 2010, told police she’d smoked marijuana, according to Mark Natale, a Bossier City spokesman
