RICHMOND — Police in Richmond, B.C., say they’re investigating a possible kidnapping after a man was reportedly seen being forced into a truck in a restaurant parking lot Friday night.

Richmond RCMP say they were called after a witness reported seeing two men force another man into a pickup truck just after 10 p.m. in the parking lot of the Bamboo Grove Restaurant on No. 3 Road.

Mounties say they viewed surveillance footage from the area, which showed a dark Ford F-150 may have been involved.

Police say officers from the serious crime unit are now investigating.
