CORPUS CHRISTI, Tx — A federal indictment paints a terrifying picture of an alleged kidnapping and robbery scheme that used a Corpus Christi tire shop as its base of operations. From there, the victim was driven to two ATMs across Corpus Christi and forced to withdraw thousands in cash before being taken to the Corpus Christi Trade Center and ordered to make a $10,000 jewelry purchase with his own credit card. Federal indictment alleges kidnapping, robbery scheme operated from Corpus Christi tire shopThe indictment states the defendants stole that jewelry on the spot as part of a scheme that took the victim all over Corpus Christi. My photographer and I visited the tire shop to ask questions about the impact on business, but the crew shut us down immediately. But one owner told me she's run her shop here for years, and always knew the tire shop owner as a friendly neighbor.
