A California family was reportedly targeted with a $70,000 ransom demand and the threat of harm to a loved one after a family of three individuals in Mexico kidnapped their neighbor. The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Central District of California revealed that Mario Alex 'Shyboy' Medina, 53, along with his son, Jose Salud 'Gordo' Medina, 31, and his sister, Maria Alejandra Medina, 50, were involved in the abduction of the victim identified as 'R.V.'
The victim was forcibly taken at gunpoint from his residence in Mexico, where he was pistol-whipped and threatened with a firearm. The kidnappers even fired a gun near the victim's head to instill fear.
