A cryptocurrency investor has been arrested in connection with the kidnapping and torture of his former business partner, who was allegedly held captive for weeks in a luxurious SoHo brownstone.
John Woeltz, 37, was taken into custody barefoot and in a bathrobe Friday morning after the 28-year-old victim managed to escape the Prince Street residence and flag down a traffic agent for help, ABC7 reported. Woeltz faces charges that include assault, kidnapping, unlawful imprisonment, and criminal possession of a firearm.
