Police are seeking information after a man was allegedly abducted in Vaughan Saturday morning.
According to police, 57-year-old Roberto Marchioni was confronted and assaulted by two suspects at around 2:15 a.m. when leaving his “place of business” at 119 Westcreek Drive near Highway 400 and Langstaff Road.
Police allege that the suspects forced Marchioni into a grey 2020 Honda CRV LX and fled the area. The vehicle was last seen travelling southbound on Highway 400, and police believe that a black Dodge Ram pickup truck was also involved.
