Vancouver Man Accused Of Kidnapping And Attempted Armed Robbery

VANCOUVER, Wash. – A Vancouver man is accused of a kidnapping and an attempted armed robbery at a gas station.

Police say the incident began around 5:30 Thursday morning when the 22-year-old suspect approached a parked car and asked the driver for a ride.

However, when the man got inside the car, he allegedly pointed a gun at the driver and made him drive around for hours.

Eventually, the driver convinced the suspect he needed gas and pulled into a Chevron.

The driver then ran inside.

That’s when the suspect allegedly came inside and demanded another car at gunpoint.

The suspect was eventually tracked down and arrested.
