An incident of alleged kidnapping resulted in the arrest Sunday, of a man who was charged with False Report to a Law Enforcement Entity. The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office says deputies arrested 21-year old Chase P. Palmer, of rural Red Oak, at around 6:43-a.m., Sunday, for causing false information to be reported, knowing that information was false. Palmer was initially reported to be the victim of the incident, but authorities located the man and determined he had in fact NOT been kidnapped. Palmer was found at a friends’ residence after losing his keys and being locked out.

Authorities say he was initially not cooperative, and they determined the man was not in any danger. Palmer was being held in the Montgomery County Jail on $300 bond.
