Brockville police have arrested three people in connection with the alleged kidnapping of a 26-year-old man.
Police say in a news release that officers responded to a call on Sept. 29 at approximately 5 a.m. from the victim who had fled from a hotel in Brockville’s north end.
The man reported being forcibly taken from Scarborough to Brockville, during which he was repeatedly struck with a firearm and threatened.
Police say they located and arrested two male suspects in a nearby vehicle a short time later.
A further investigation revealed a third female suspect had remained in the hotel room from where the victim escaped and subsequently surrendered to police.
All three suspects were charged with forcible confinement, assault with a weapon, robbery with a firearm, kidnapping and several other weapons-related offences.
The suspects were not named.
An investigation is ongoing.
