Ryan’s long trip south began at 5 a.m., police said, when he allegedly broke into his ex-girlfriend’s Oakdale home and forced her into her 2014 Mercedes Benz. The woman, who was not identified, was able to flee after Ryan momentarily stopped the car in Ozone Park, Queens, police said.

The woman, who is 46 years old, ran out of the car and was able to get help and call 911, a police spokeswoman said.

The victim suffered minor injuries, police said.
