Teen kidnapped other boys and threatened to kill one of them, Nebraska police say

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) — A 15-year-old was taken into custody after Grand Island Police say he kidnapped other boys and even threatened to kill one of them.

This all started at an apartment building near Chanticleer Street and Stagecoach Road on Thursday, just before 4 p.m.

According to the Grand Island Police Department, the suspect first punched another 15-year-old in the face.

Officers say the attacker had a knife and threatened to kill the victim unless he confessed to a crime he didn’t commit.

From there, the suspect is accused of ordering a 16-year-old to drive all three of them to another location.

He was eventually caught and charged with terroristic threats, use of a weapon to commit a felony, third-degree assault and kidnapping.
