The victim was confined in the car and driven around for 1 to 2 hours with one suspect armed, whom eventually pistol-whipped the victim. After the victim’s wife hadn’t heard from him, she notified the police through the OnStar auto security system. An OnStar representative placed a call to the vehicle and heard the victim scream for help. When the suspects heard the OnStar operator, they abandoned the victim and fled in the car, allowing the victim to free himself.

The police document that Alaniz required four staples to the back of his head after being pistol-whipped.

There’s no indication that the victim was targeted because he’s a federal officer.

The fourth suspect is still at large.
