That distracted her enough to throw the cell and try to deal with the keys. More fighting ensued.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I got the cell phone back and dialed 911 again. More fighting &#8230; I finally broke away, got in the truck and drove off trying to find a neighbor to call 911. There was no one around since it was Friday night, so I chased someone in a car, kept flashing my lights and honking the horn. They finally pulled over and she made the 911 call for me. A truly good Samaritan.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Police have identified the assailant as Laurence Marie Dorn, 38. She is facing second-degree burglary, misdemeanor larceny, misdemeanor stalking, assault and battery and interfering with emergency communication charges.

It has been my tipping point. No, I am not a victim. I am a survivor. I am left with all the terrifying feelings of PTSD and trying to pull myself out of the very depth of the all-consuming depression and despair.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll I have ever wanted is to feel safe.
