According to investigators, a man was forced into a vehicle against his will by three suspects and “physically assaulted over several hours.”
The man was forced at gun point to hand over a substantial value of jewellery, police said.
Police say the man was able to escape several hours later. Few other details have been provided regarding the kidnapping.
