Female Friends Tell Authorities They Were Kidnapped
CENTRAL OHIO—CPD and the Licking County sheriff’s office continued to investigate an alleged abduction that began in Columbus and ended at Buckeye Lake Saturday.
NBC 4 reported with the FAST FACTS.
A 17-year-old female and a 22-year-old woman, who say they are friends, said they were kidnapped at 9 a.m. from an area near Parsons and Southwood avenues on the city’s South Side.
They said two black males forced them into a green vehicle of unknown make and model and told them they were headed for West Virginia to be prostitutes.
The females told authorities they told their kidnappers they needed to use a restroom.
When they were allowed to leave the vehicle and go into a Buckeye Lake Duke and Duchess store alone, they locked themselves in a restroom.
They said the two men who allegedly took them at gunpoint left without them.
That was at about 5 p.m.
Columbus police told NBC 4 it was following all the leads given to them by the women and hoped to see surveillance video from the store in Buckeye Lake Monday.

Sounds to me like these women are racist. I think they are. Why would they connect black males with pimping ? Yep just plain racist is all it is. We all know it cant be true. Just trying to put the blame on some minority. Shame, shame.
Sounds like wishful thinking these girls are IDIOTS and their parents are BIGGER IDIOTS if they believe them.
So, the kidnappers fell for the old “I need to use the bathroom” trick, did they? Fools them every time!
Bet they are LYING !!!!
Bet they went to Buckeye Lake to arty with some other southend bubbas and knew they would “maybe” be in trouble for being gone so came up with this story to tell the Buckeye Lake Keystone Cops (One was so fat on news he waddled not walked) and a poor store clerk they dupped.
Hope thwy both go to jail for this lie.
