WARWICK –– A Providence man said a group of men abducted him from his motel room late Monday night, binding him with duct tape and beating him as they took him back into Providence.

Jamal Mansary, 19, of Tiffany Street in Providence, was found several hours later by Providence police, who saw him walking on Manton Avenue.

Mansary and a friend, Dean Robinson, 21, were staying at the Motel 6 on Jefferson Boulevard when four or five men burst into their hotel room with a gun, said Warwick Police Lt. Ken LaForce. Robinson escaped, but Mansary was bound with duct tape and kidnapped, LaForce said.

The Warwick police alerted other police departments to be on the lookout for Mansary and his kidnappers in a light-colored SUV. When Mansary was spotted by Providence police at around 3:30 a.m., he had some injuries, but none serious enough to require hospitalization, LaForce said. Mansary said he freed himself from his captors, according to LaForce.

Mansary told the police that his abductors wanted money, but he was otherwise uncooperative with the investigators, LaForce said.

Robinson, of Porter Street in Providence’s Washington Park neighborhood, was charged with possession of marijuana after Warwick police found marijuana and a scale in the motel room, LaForce said.
