| Man
Charged in Alleged Kidnaping |
| |
A Nebo man is
accused of kidnaping another man and later assaulting him while he was held a
gunpoint.
According to a press release by the Burke County Sheriff's
Office, Jeffrey Ross Burleson (right), 48, of
7482 South Mountain Institute Road picked up Ted Olsen yesterday and took him
to an undisclosed location. While there, Burleson and Olsen reportedly began
arguing. |
 |
|
| Olsen later told deputies Burleson pulled a
handgun on him and began kicking and hitting him. Olsen's injuries did not
require medical attention. |
| |
| Burleson was later arrested for kidnaping and
was confined in the Burke County Jail under a $25,000 secured bond. He has a
first court appearance today, and additional charges are pending. |
