Oregon man faces federal kidnapping charge March 10, 2021 FacebookTwitterEmail MEDFORD, Ore. (AP) — A Southern Oregon man faces a new federal charge accusing him of forcing a man across state lines for ransom last year. The kidnapping sparked a Northern California police chase in which an officer held onto the side of a moving vehicle until the suspect pulled over, authorities said. David Brian Scott, 46, was charged Monday in U.S. District Court in Medford with kidnapping, the Mail Tribune reported. He is accused of forcing a 30-year-old man to travel into California in an attempt to collect a disputed $25,000 debt, according to an affidavit filed by an FBI special agent based in Portland.
