A recent kidnapping incident at Kansas City Kansas Community College has authorities believing it may be related to the kidnapping incident here Sept. 15.
The KCKCC incident occurred during the late afternoon of Oct. 17. The suspect is described as a 5-8 black male, about 175 pounds with corn rows in short to medium-length hair, and tattoos on the right side of his neck, according to the Wyandotte Daily News.
