RCMP say two men have been charged after an armed kidnapping in Jasper Alta., on Saturday.
Mounties say the victim was taken into a vehicle by two males armed with firearms, but managed to jump out of the moving vehicle and ran into a nearby business for help.
He was taken to hospital and treated for non-life threatening injuries.
A few hours later, RCMP in nearby Hinton conducted a high-risk traffic stop and took one male into custody while another man turned himself in at the local detachment two days later.
Otto Richard Latimer, 21, and Nathan Rodney Shevalier, 29, are charged with forcible confinement, uttering threats to cause death, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose and theft under $5000, along with additional charges for Shevalier.
Police strongly believe that this was a targeted incident as the victim was known to the suspects and say the public is not a risk.
