Authorities are searching for a man who was kidnapped from a Brooklyn street Friday night — and may have been held in home with a “torture room,” police sources said.
Three men were hanging out in front of 41 Greenpoint Ave. when a van pulled up to them, sources said. The driver and his two accomplices claimed to be law enforcement, showed handcuffs, and ordered the trio to get inside, but sources said only two of the victims did.
One of the victim’s girlfriends witnessed the kidnapping and called cops. She also reached out to Apple to track her missing boyfriend’s cell phone, according to sources.
The cell showed one of the victims was being driven around in Queens, where cops rescued him and took the driver into custody, sources said.
The driver alerted police to the possible location of the second victim at a home in Elmhurst, Queens.
But when cops busted down the door Saturday, no one was inside the home near 32nd Avenue and 105th Street in Elmhurst.
What authorities did find was a chair inside of what sources described as a “torture room.”
Both the victims and their kidnappers were allegedly involved in drug dealing, sources said.
Police are hunting for the missing man. No charges have been released for the alleged kidnapper.
