Police were called to the 2400 block of Sayner Avenue at about 11:30 p.m. June 30, officials said then. People at the scene told police that a friend of theirs had been robbed and kidnapped.
At approximately 7:15 the next morning, police went to the 600 block of Whitney Street, where the victim was found.
