The victim told police that on May 19, she drove Jade Tressler and Derrick Henley to buy drugs. <\/p>\n

She said the pair put a gun to her head and threatened her. According to the complaint, Tressler and Henley drove the victim to Homestead where they stayed until midnight. <\/p>\n

The victim told authorities she agreed to let the suspects keep her vehicle until 5 p.m. the next day if they drove her home. The victim said she made the agreement because she feared for her life.<\/p>\n

The pair never returned the victim’s vehicle. <\/p>\n

Over a month later, officers conducted a traffic stop on the victim’s car and arrested Tressler and Henley. <\/p>\n

The pair are facing multiple charges, including kidnapping, robbery, and assault.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Police: Pair threatened woman with a gun, drove off in her car after drug run in Allegheny County…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":257398,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[894,1646,11228,3646,2663,4959,8467,109400,109401,109403,9001,29598,44215,12722,109399,3626,58049,9106,4800,17944,28,73,75,74,2781,32722,23552,17925,6967,890,109402,2184,50023],"class_list":["post-257397","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-pittsburgh","tag-allegheny-county","tag-arrest","tag-assault","tag-authority","tag-car","tag-car-theft","tag-criminal-complaint","tag-derrick-henley","tag-drug-buy","tag-drug-run","tag-gun","tag-gun-threat","tag-gunpoint","tag-homestead","tag-jade-tressler","tag-kidnapping","tag-next-day","tag-north-braddock","tag-p-m","tag-pair","tag-pennsylvania","tag-pittsburgh","tag-pittsburgh-headlines","tag-pittsburgh-news","tag-robbery","tag-stolen-car","tag-suspects","tag-traffic-stop","tag-vehicle","tag-victim","tag-victim-vehicle","tag-woman","tag-woman-kidnapped"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/257397","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=257397"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/257397\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/257398"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=257397"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=257397"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=257397"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
