Worcester Man Arrested On Kidnapping Charges

Kidnapping charges are pending  against a Worcester man after a hostage incident in Northampton this  weekend.  

Police say 20-year-old Hart Sligh held two people at  knifepoint on Saturday after a car deal went south in Worcester and the  buyer wanted his money back.  

One of the victims apparently said he  needed to go to Williamsburg to get the money, but the vehicle being  traveled in to get there was pulled over by Northampton police after  they were issued an order to be on the lookout by State Police.  

The  identity of the man who reportedly ordered Sligh to go with the victims  hasn't been made available.
