By mouthing the words “help me” to an officer, a woman in South Carolina helped authorities jail a man suspected of a shooting and a kidnapping: her own passenger.
南卡羅來納州一名婦女利用唇語向員警表達「救我」，協助警方逮到涉嫌槍擊和綁架的男子：她自己車上的乘客。
Officer Kayla Wallace pulled over a woman behind the wheel of a Jeep that ran a red light. Wallace noticed the woman was in distress while seated alongside 29-year-old Collin Bates.
員警凱拉．華勒斯將一名駕駛Jeep闖紅燈的婦人攔下，注意到這名和29歲科林斯‧貝茲坐在一起的婦女神情不安。
The driver silently and repeatedly mouthed the words “help me”. Wallace then spoke privately with her. The woman frantically explained that Bates had just shot another person.
這名駕駛人一再用唇語無聲地表達「救我」這兩個字。於是華勒斯私下和她談話，這名婦女急忙地解釋，貝茲剛射殺另一人。
Wallace found a pistol that was illegally concealed by Bates, and the officer arrested him.
華勒斯發現，貝茲非法私藏一把手槍，於是將他逮捕。
