Our apartment was almost on TV! (they stopped shooting right as our car would have come into view) There was an older gentleman that was robbed and kidnapped today and driven to our apartment complex. It was almost exactly what happened to Zach’s best friend when he left here one time earlier this year. Zach is on the phone trying to get his friend to call the police, but isn’t having any luck at this point. His friend is scared now that the older guy will sue him. He was totally freaked out when it happened. It does explain why we saw police cruising through the complex earlier tonight.
I wish there was a way to know exactly what apartment the guys were in when the got arrested so we know if was the same person/people, but there is no way to find out (that we know of) without betraying our friend’s confidence. I desperately wish he would report it, but I can understand his fear. He has a wife and three kids and is very low income and wouldn’t have to resources to protect himself if somebody tried to take revenge.
The guy is fine and got his wallet back and the suspects were arrested. Thank goodness!
