Cops: Gunmen Kidnapped Teen From Bus Stop

DAYTON, Ohio -- Police are looking for four men who reportedly kidnapped a teen from a bus stop Sunday night.

The 17-year-old was waiting for the bus in the 4200 block of Free Pike around 8:30 p.m. after finishing his shift at McDonald's when he said two men approached him.  A police report said the men asked him, "Where is the stuff?"

When he told them he didn't know what they were talking about, one of the men hit him in the back of the head with a gun, according to the report.

The teen told police he was then forced into a car with two other men in it.  The men apparently took the teen's cell phone and iPod, before threatening him with another gun and demanding more.

The man fired a shot into the backseat of the car after the boy said he didn't know what they wanted, according to the report.  He was let go somewhere on Home Avenue several hours later.

The teen went to his grandmother's house, where she called police.  He was treated for minor injuries at a hospital.

The boy reportedly said at the hospital he did recognize the car's driver, but not any of the other men.

Anybody with information in the case is asked to call 333-COPS.
