Someone has been watching Season 2 of Atlanta…
A man in Bridgeport, Connecticut, made the call no family ever wants to receive: he’d been kidnapped and a ransom was being demanded. According to KETV Omaha, the 21-year-old victim was abducted and forced to call his aunt with demands of $800 or else he would be “burned.” But here’s where things got weird…
When the police instructed the aunt to demand a picture of her nephew, she wasn’t expecting to see her nephew underneath a goddamn prehistoric monster. The picture showed the kidnapped facedown in a bathtub with a 3-foot alligator on top of him with its mouth open, facing the camera.
The police were able to trace the call to a Residence Inn where they apprehended 30-year-old Isaias Garcia, who has been charged with kidnapping, extortion, and assault. The alligator was taken by the Department of Environmental Protection.
