Steven Castrovinci said of the kidnapped couple, as quoted by ABC News\u2019 New York City station WABC-TV. \u201cThe male victim was pretty bruised, pretty swollen and they indicated they were struck with a bat several times.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A witness alerted law enforcement and followed the van until it lost control and crashed. Police were then able to apprehend the four men in the van and free the kidnapped couple. The other two men were arrested later.<\/p>\n<p>Police told WABC that the two victims were taken to the hospital and are recovering from their injuries, which are not life-threatening.<\/p>\n<p>All six suspects now face charges including first-degree assault, first-degree kidnapping and reckless endangerment.
