Slang: to lock (a person) in the trunk of a car?[edit]

I found this mention, but can't find anything else on it. Presumably North American, since in the UK we call the rear storage of a car a "boot".

    Another punishment for unruly prostitutes is to “trunk” them, where the pimp locks the prostitute in the trunk of a car.
