Man kidnapped by stranger, forced to buy cigarettes

Police say a man waiting at a bus stop was taken on a horrifying ride by an accused kidnapper last month.

The victim was waiting for the bus at the corner of 1st Street and Muhammad Ali Boulevard on July 19th, when police say a complete stranger -- Donald Sherley Jr. -- pulled up with a gun and demanded that the man get in his car.

Sherley drove the victim to an ATM and demanded that he use his card to get him cash, but the card didn't work.

Instead, police say Sherley made him buy a carton of cigarettes, and the victim later escaped.

Sherley was arrested yesterday and charged with robbery and kidnapping.
