Three people have been arrested for confinement after a search warrant was executed at a home in South Bend on Tuesday.
According to the South Bend Police Department, last Wednesday, March 22, a man was invited to a home in the 1200 block of Wilber Street on the premise that he would pick up both food and heroin.
When the man arrived, he was asked into the kitchen, where he was ambushed by four people, two of which were armed with guns.
One of the suspects threatened to shoot him and even released a round above the man’s head. The suspects then forced the man into the basement, and he was bound with various ropes, chains, and cords, after which he was beaten with pieces of wood and an electrical cord.
One of the suspects would later use that same electrical cord to strangle the man.
The man said he was gagged with a shirt, waterboarded, burned with a cigar, and tortured for about five hours, after which he was able to escape his bindings and run to a nearby home to call the police.
