Sentinel staff report
After an extensive manhunt, Detectives with the Tulare County Sheriff’s Office have found the victim from kidnapping that occurred on Saturday. The victim had been forced into the back seat of his own vehicle while at a gas station in the Cutler Area.
Detectives followed up on numerous leads over the ensuing 24 hours, which lead to the recovery of the victim. The victim reportedly had minor injuries as a result of the kidnapping, but was overall in good health.
The suspects in this case are still outstanding and anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Tulare County Sheriffs Office.
On Saturday, Oct. 18, at approximately 1150 a.m., Deputies were called to a gas station in the 40300 Block of Road 128 in Cutler in regards to a suspicious incident which had just occurred. Deputies arrived on scene and were told by witnesses of a possible kidnapping.
Deputies located video surveillance at a local store, which showed the victim pulling up to the gas pumps in his 2007 Nissan Versa. A short time later, a black lifted
Nissan Titan pulled up next to the victim’s vehicle, at which time two Hispanic males were seen exiting the truck. The two males reportedly confronted the victim and he is seen being pushed into the back seat of his vehicle. Both vehicles then fled south on Road 128 toward Visalia.
Deputies immediately began checking the area and found the victim’s vehicle abandoned in the area of Ave 392 and Road 128. Detectives with the Tulare County Sheriff’s Office Violent Crimes Unit have responded to the scene and taken over the investigation.
The suspect’s vehicle is described as a Black Lifted Nissan Titan (oxidized or faded paint on the cab) with Black wheels, black tinted windows and “Discount Auto” Paper Plates.
The case is being investigated as a possible kidnapping. Anyone with information or who knows the identity of the victim or possible suspects, please contact Detective Brandon VanCuren or Sgt. Gary Marks with the Tulare County Sheriff’s Office at 733-6218 or they can remain anonymous by calling or texting 725-4194 or through email at tcso@tipnow. com.
