Kidnapping is a heinous and heartless crime that sometimes results in the death of the person being held for ransom.
But in a strange twist in a case in Florida, it was the victim who emerged unscathed after violently turning the tables on his abductors.
Police in Tampa, Florida are still trying to figure out exactly what happened after a man was taken from a local hotel at gunpoint Sunday and forced into a waiting car. The kidnappers apparently believed the victim could lead them to another man they had a dispute with over some stolen coins.
So when the trio drove off with their reluctant hostage, he knew he had to look for any break to get away.
But he never expected the one that came.
Cops say one of the abductors in the back seat temporarily put down his gun so he could send a text message on his cell phone. Without hesitating, the victim picked up the loaded weapon, shot the man next to him and then fired a series of rounds at the other abductor in the front seat.
