Three jehova witness members were said to have run out of their home n***d out of fear that the world was coming to an end.

Three Jehovah's Witnesses have been said to
have run out of their home n*ked for fear that
the world was coming to an end.

Three people who were arrested n*ked by
Canadian police after kidnapping their
neighbours and crashing their car into
another vehicle were Jehovah’s Witnesses
who believed that they were escaping the end
of the world, according to court documents.

In a plea document obtained by the Canadian
Press, two women and a man admitted to
kidnapping three people in the western
province of Alberta last year, which brought a
degree of clarity to the bizarre incident last
November. One of the women also pleaded
guilty to dangerous driving.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police launched
their investigation after they were called to
the scene of a car crash in an industrial park
in Nisku, south of Edmonton.

They arrived to find a white BMW that had
collided with a truck; inside were five people
– four of them n*ked – despite the
centimetres of snow on the ground and
temperatures that hovered around -10C
(14F).
According to the plea document, the episode
had begun several days earlier, when one of
the women took her her two teenage
daughters to visit her 27-year old nephew
and his 30-year old wife, who lived in Leduc,
Alberta.

After three days at the house – during which
the group barely ate – they came to believe
that they had lived through the Great
Tribulation, a period of suffering which some
evangelical Christians believe heralds the
second coming.

Believing they were in imminent danger, the
group fled the house – but in their haste,
none of the family – except the mother –
managed to get dressed, the document says.

“Four who were naked were changing but they
had to leave right away because it was unsafe,
so they left without clothes,” the plea
document said.

The group piled into a BMW SUV – which the
mother drove through the garage door to
make their escape – but then decided they
needed to rescue the neighbours.

They forced a man into the trunk of their
vehicle and made his adult daughter and her
baby climb into the back seat. “They did so
because they believed that they were in danger,
either from bad or wicked people outside or
from demons,” says the guilty plea.

The BMW then raced down the highway,
blasting through a red light as its occupants
chanted “Jehovah” over and over.
According to the document, the three
neighbours managed to escape when the SUV
slowed down and flagged down a passing
truck.

“It’s the middle of the winter and people running
around with no shoes on – you stop to help
them,” Derek Scott, the truck’s driver, told CTV
News last year.

The neighbours climbed aboard the truck –
but their relief was short-lived: the SUV
rammed Scott’s truck, and both vehicles
ended up in a snow-filled ditch.

When police responded to the accident, they
faced a group who “displayed extreme
strength” and refused to leave the vehicle.
According to the court document, one of the
teens believe the officers were “were monsters
who would kill them”.

Police eventually resorted to using a
combination of pepper spay and tasers to
subdue and arrest the passengers.

At the time, police suspected drugs or
alcohol might have been a factor in the
incident. The father of the two teens – who
wasn’t present during the incident – told
investigators that he fears the group might
have consumed a hallucinogenic tea.

But according to the Canadian Press, the
plea document makes no mention of drugs or
alcohol.
The two teenagers who were present during
the abduction were not charged
