Roosevelt Student Beaten In Robbery Attempt
DES MOINES, Iowa -- Des Moines police are looking for a teenager they said kidnapped, beat up and robbed a Roosevelt High School student.
Authorities said a warrant has been issued for 15-year-old Karlos Laverne Goldman Jr. on charges of second-degree kidnapping and robbery.
When Mike French left Des Moines' Central Campus Wednesday, two people approached his car asking for a ride.
"They asked for a ride and told the general vicinity and he said sure, that's not far out of my way. I'd be happy to do that," said Mark French, Frenc
h's father.
French drove away from Central Campus, toward the address where the two wanted to go, according to police.
"They grabbed and went through
his pocks and had his bill fold," Mark French said.
Des Moines police said Goldman is one of the people police said demanded money from French.
"Of course, any time he didn't cooperate with them, they would grab him and start beating him again," Mark French said.
Police said French, Karlos and another person drove to West Des Moines where French's girlfriend's mother gave the assailants $100. French eventually dropped the two off back in Des Moines, but not before he was punched nearly 20 times.
"These people are out at large and they could prey on somebody else," Mark French said.
Des Moines police don't know the identity of the second assailant. They said Karlos Goldman is a student at Scavo high school, right next to Central Campus.
