What the BLEEP?

Every once in a while, my sleepy little home turf of Mahopac and Carmel makes news that shocks, astounds, and confounds me.

This is that once in a while. Take it away, the Journal News:

CARMEL - A 47-year-old Mahopac man was abducted from his home at knifepoint and driven to at least two places in Mahopac where he was tortured by three people he knew, police said.

After being held for several hours, the victim was able to escape his three abductors, two men and a woman, who at some point left him tied up and alone. He managed to undo his restraints and alert police by calling 911 early Wednesday, Lt. Brian Karst said yesterday.

Wow...just wow.
