A man wanted in connection with a kidnapping incident that began in Berks County and led into Schuylkill County earlier this month has been apprehended in Wyoming.
State police at Reading say the suspect, Marshall Glenn McGinty, 43, was arrested Feb. 25 without incident by Casper Wyoming police in a parked Honda Fit at the East Side Mall Walmart.
The car belongs to the victim in the kidnapping incident.
The incident occurred allegedly on Feb. 16 when McGinty entered a home in the 1300 block of Hawk Mountain Road, Albany Township.
The victim was house sitting at the home.
When he came home around 4:45 p.m. McGinty was in the house.
Upon entering the home McGinty allegedly pointed an assault rifle, an AK -47, at the man and ordered him to lie on the floor face down.
McGinty tied the man's wrists together and took his wallet and keys.
Sometime around 6 p.m., McGinty drove the man in his car to a Santander Bank branch at 120 S. Centre Ave., Pottsville, where he withdrew $60 from the man's account.
McGinty then drove to the Hamburg reservoir where he cut free the man's hands and drove off in his car.
The AK-47 is the property of the homeowner, troopers said.
McGinty is facing charges of kidnapping, unlawful restraint, robbery, criminal trespass, theft, simple assault and recklessly endangering another person.
