On Sept. 14, a 75-year-old woman was allegedly abducted from the parking lot of the 99 Restaurant in Pembroke by a man posing as a valet driver. Police say surveillance footage and traffic records from Rhode Island helped confirm the timeline and support the woman’s account.
The suspect, Michael J. Guerrero, 36, of Rhode Island, was arrested and now faces five felony charges: kidnapping, carjacking, indecent assault and battery on a person over 60 or disabled, assault and battery on a person over 60 or disabled, and assault with a dangerous weapon. He entered a plea of not guilty.
Guerrero is being held without bail pending a dangerousness hearing scheduled for Oct. 6.
