Boy, 12, Was Kidnapped, Forced to Drink Urine at Camp, Police Say
HAWTHORNE, Fla. — The Putnam County Sheriff's Office says four people at a Boy Scout camp were arrested for holding a 12-year-old boy against his will and forcing him to drink urine.
Authorities say kidnapping charges were filed Friday against 21-year-old Wendell Reid and three juveniles, two who are 16 and one who is 15. The juveniles were turned over to the Florida Department of Justice. Jail records do not show if Reid has an attorney. He's being held without bond in the Putnam County Jail.
A message left with the Boy Scouts was not immediately returned Monday.
The sheriff's office says the four are all Ocala residents and that the incident was apparently over remarks made by the victim earlier in the week.
