Two men were arrested Friday after allegedly kidnapping and assaulting their roommate for two days, including cutting off his finger, in Denver’s Westwood neighborhood. The man reported the kidnapping Thursday at a Denver Police Department district station, where he told officers that four people he lived with held him against his will in the 500 block of South Hazel Court and assaulted him, including cutting off one of his fingers, department officials said in an email. The man was able to escape after two days. Investigators identified two suspects in the case and arrested Jose Pineda-Moreno, 19, and Darwin Veliz-Gonzalez, 34, on suspicion of first-degree kidnapping, assault and criminal extortion on Friday.
