A man was freed unharmed in Sauget shortly after midnight Monday after he was robbed and kidnapped at the Red Roof Inn at 5823 Wilson Avenue, near Hampton Avenue and Interstate 44, St. Louis police said.
Police said the two kidnappers may have simply needed a ride across the river. Police gave this account:
The victim, 21, answered the door to his room at the Red Roof and was confronted by two gunmen, who used duct tape to tie his arms and the arms of a 36-year-old female companion behind their backs. The intruders took $10 and a cell phone, and ordered the male victim to his car. The gunmen had the victim drive them to Sauget, where they got out of the car and fled on foot.
The woman left behind in the motel room was not injured.
The victim was unharmed. What precautions could he have taken?
