THERE COULD BE MORE TO THE STORY ABOUT TWO PEOPLE HELD AGAINST THEIR WILL AT AN ALBUQUERQUE HOME IN THE SOUTH VALLEY. SHERIFF’S DEPUTIES WENT TO THE RESIDENCE OFF LA VEGA DRIVE AFTER GETTING 9-1-1 CALLS EARLY SATURDAY MORNING FROM A WOMAN TELLING THEM SHE WAS BEING HELD PRISONER. SHE WAS FOUND, ALONG WITH ANOTHER MAN WHO HAD SEVERAL INJURIES.
FELICIA ROMERO WITH THE SHERIFF’S DEPARTMENT SAYS THIS CASE COULD BE JUST DEVELOPING. BASED ON THE SEARCH WARRANT AND WHAT DEPUTIES INITIALLY SAW, THE MAN AND WOMAN FOUND AT THE SOUTH VALLEY HOME MAY NOT BE THE ONLY VICTIMS INVOLVED. INVESTIGATORS THINK THERE COULD BE MULTIPLE VICTIMS.
THE MAN LIVING AT THE HOME, MARCEL BLAND, WAS ARRESTED ON CHARGES OF AGGRAVATED BATTERY , KIDNAPPING AND FALSE IMPRISONMENT. ROMERO SAYS IT’S BELIEVED BLAND WAS IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE WOMAN.
