Couple in Lamborghini kidnapped and beaten while house hunting, police say

A couple in their 50’s were kidnapped and assaulted this weekend while house hunting in Connecticut, police have said.

The incident occurred on Sunday afternoon in the city of Danbury, when a group of six men intentionally rear-ended the couple’s Lamborghini sports car before forcing them into the back of a van.

The men — all of whom live in Florida — beat the couple with a baseball bat, duct taped their hands and feet and covered the male victim’s eyes. Some members of the group then drove off with the Lamborghini while the others sought to escape with the victims in the van.

“It seems like they were struck with a bat,” Sgt. Steven Castrovinci said of the kidnapped couple, as quoted by ABC News’ New York City station WABC. “The male victim was pretty bruised, pretty swollen and they indicated they were struck with a bat several times.”

A witness alerted law enforcement and followed the van until it lost control and crashed. Police were then able to apprehend the four men in the van and free the kidnapped couple. The other two men were arrested later.

Police told WABC that the two victims were taken to the hospital and are recovering from their injuries, which are not life-threatening.

All six suspects now face charges including first-degree ********, first-degree kidnapping and reckless endangerment. The motive ******** unclear, and there is no clear connection between the suspect and the victims.

WABC named the arrested men as Angel Borrero, 23; Reynaldo Diaz, 22; Anthony Pena, 23; Josue Romero, 26; Ricardo Estrada, 21; and Michael Rivas, 18.
