Samuel Bolling Jr., 38, of Hot Springs, Arkansas, and 19-year-old Dayla Ferrer of Atoka, Tennessee, were arrested in connection with Case’s kidnapping, Hot Springs police said.
Case went missing around 9:15 p.m. Monday night in the Exchange Street parking deck in Hot Springs as she was leaving work, authorities previously said.
Case was leaving work with a friend when an unknown White woman stated she was lost and asked the teen to come closer to her car so she could use the teen’s phone, KNWA-TV reported, citing police.
Case’s friend had left to bring their car around during this time. When the friend returned Case was gone and wouldn’t answer her phone, KHBS-TV reported.
The friend called Case’s mom, who tried calling her daughter’s phone multiple times. Investigators said Case eventually answered, saying "everything is fine," before a male voice demanded $10,000 for Case’s return or he would kill her and cut her up, the reports said.
No further contact was made and police issued an Amber Alert.
