Sheriff Keith Royal said one victim attempted to run when he spotted sheriff’s officers arrive at the 76 station but was apprehended quickly as a result of broken ribs apparently received during the assault. While questioning the victims, officers were able to piece together a story that had begun when the victims tried to hold collateral from the suspect who allegedly owed them money.
