WICHITA, Kan. (AP) - Authorities say a man was abducted and ordered to take off his clothes before being shot in the leg and left behind a Wichita church.

The Wichita Eagle reports that the man was rushed Monday night to a hospital with non-life threatening injuries. Lt. Wendell Nicholson says the victim was forced into a sport utility vehicle at gunpoint after meeting other people for a “transaction.”

Nicholson says the man then was made to strip as he was driven around. After the SUV’s driver pulled up in the alley behind Iglesia Christiana Jehova-Jireh, the man was shot in the leg. The naked man then ran to the church, where people inside called police.
