This afternoon around 1:50pm officers were dispatched to the 2600 block of E 30th on a reported disturbance.

When officers arrived, they were contacted by the mother of an adult female victim stating her daughter had been kidnapped and taken to a nearby apartment. She stated she was kidnapped in a neighboring city by a known associate, who is an adult male, and brought to the dispatched location. She informed officers that the victim notified her of the incident via text message.

After numerous attempts to get the male to come out peacefully were unsuccessful, officers deescalated and surrounded the apartment to prevent escape and protect surrounding residents.

Negotiators efforts have been unsuccessful thus far to get the subject to come out of the apartment. However, negotiators will continue to work on bringing a peaceful end to the situation for all persons involved.

Just before 5:45PM the victim and suspect exited an apartment where officers took the male subject into custody without incident. The victim was also safely located and will be reunited with her family.

The investigation into the kidnapping is ongoing at this time.
