At 7:53 a.m., officers responded to a residence at 326 Stowe St. for a well being complaint. Prior to arrival officers were advised that a male victim had been robbed and assaulted and was being held inside of a residence against his will.

Officers responded to the residence and upon arrival and after several minutes, the male victim exited the residence with two other male subjects. The male victim appeared to have been assaulted as he had several facial injuries that required EMS.
