In the video, the man is seen speaking to the woman inside the car for about 15 seconds before opening her door and trying to pull her from the driver's seat.

Within seconds, a man sitting in his vehicle behind the struggle and a package delivery man at a nearby crosswalk both run to the woman's aid. The two bystanders pull the man away from the woman before man picks up items that were dropped during the altercation and walks away.

The woman called 911 and minutes later, officers arrived on scene and took the man into custody, according to the police department.

Joshua Joseph Perini, 35, who has addresses listed in Travelers Rest and Greenville, was still being held in the Greenville County jail by Thursday. Bond was not set by a judge during a hearing on April 5 after his arrest.

The woman in the case was not injured, just shaken up, said Donnie Porter, a police spokesman.

A Greenville Police Department incident report states the man approached the woman asking for directions before ordering her out of the vehicle in an attempt to take her car. She refused and tried to fight off the man before the two bystanders came to help.

Porter said the woman was able to give a description of the man, which helped officers locate him quickly.
