The victim said the suspects, who were victims of an earlier robbery, believed him to be the perpetrator. The suspects were known to the victim.

The suspects, a 20-year-old Parsons man, a 19-year-old Lawrence man and a 20-year-old Lawrence man, were arrested at 3:10 p.m. Sunday and booked on charges on aggravated assault, aggravated battery, aggravated robbery and aggravated kidnapping.

Thomas said detectives are continuing to investigate the crime.
