Mobile police have made an arrest in the case of a 17-year-old who was shot and stabbed earlier this month.
The male victim was found in the trunk of a car the morning of Dec. 13. The car was outside Corpus Christi Church on McKenna Drive.
Police say the teen was shot in the leg and also had a stab wound. His injuries were not life-threatening. He was treated at the hospital and later released.
Police have determined that the man who was taking care of the victim was responsible for the crime.
Reginald Michael Reed, 55, was arrested Monday and charged with first-degree kidnapping.
Mobile police spokeswoman Charlette Solis said Reed and the victim were staying at a hotel when the incident happened. Reed’s story differs greatly from the video evidence, according to investigators.
