Toronto police have arrested three suspects and are seeking three more in an abduction they say took place earlier this month near St. George Street and Huron Street.
Police say a 21-year-old man was approached from behind by four people, one of them armed with a stun gun, who choked and robbed him on Nov. 16.
They say the man was forced to withdraw money at a bank machine, then taken to an east-end motel, where he was held until he raised his credit limit.
