Kidnapped into strange van, Durham man is still missing
A 26-year-old man who was forced into a van last week is still missing.
Police spokeswoman Kammie Michael said, via email, that he has been kidnapped.
The last known sighting of Charleston Prentice Goodman was at 6:20 p.m. Jan. 28. when his family members saw four men force him into a silver Honda Odyssey on East Woodcroft Parkway.
Michael wrote that the Honda was “possibly a 2005 to 2008 model.”
Witnesses described a Honda Odyssey with a damaged passenger side sliding door.
“Which made it difficult to close the door,” Michael wrote.
Goodman is a brown-haired, browned-eyed African-American man, who is 5 feet 11 inches tall and around 140 pounds.
One suspected kidnapper had dreadlocks, police said, and a second suspected kidnapper wore an Adidas striped track suit.
The Durham police have the public’s help. Anyone with information is asked to call Inv. E. Ortiz at 919-560-4440, extension 29337 or CrimeStoppers at 919-683-1200.
