A kidnapping that began in South San Francisco ended up with an arrest of a 25-year old man at Walmart in Pleasanton on Dec. 3.
Brent Rosard Kipp was arrested at about 11:22 p.m. Dec. 3 in the 4500 block of Rosewood Drive on a host of felonies and misdemeanors.
The kidnapping began when Kipp showed up at the home of his 20-year-old ex-girlfriend, according to Pleasanton police Sgt. Kurt Schlehuber.
"The kidnapping didn't happen here in Pleasanton. This is where they stopped on the highway up to Reno. He convinced her to get in his vehicle because they wanted to talk about their relationship, and she soon realized they weren't going to talk," Schlehuber said.
The couple stopped in Pleasanton at Walmart, and the woman hid inside a restroom.
"When a Walmart employee came in, she said, 'Hey, I'm being kidnapped by my ex-boyfriend,'" Schlehuber said. "He was on probation so we conducted a search of his vehicle, where we recovered meth, marijuana and brass knuckles."
Kipp was arrested for kidnapping, possession of metal knuckles, methamphetamine possession, marijuana possession, felony threats and paraphernalia possession.
"It's a serious crime but it's not very complicated," Schlehuber said.Are you receiving Express, our free daily e-mail edition? See a sample and sign-up for Express.

Posted by Proud P-Town resident, a resident of the Another Pleasanton neighborhood neighborhood, on Dec 6, 2012 at 8:41 am Another proud moment for our Pleasanton PD. There are lots of really good guys on the force, and although I don't know Sgt. Kurt Schlehuber personally, he sounds like one of the best!

Posted by Pinkie, a resident of the Birdland neighborhood, on Dec 6, 2012 at 8:46 am I think it is highly significant that this happened at a Walmart. Can you imagine what would have happened if it had occurred at a unionized grocery? I rest my case. God Bless American, and God Bless Walmart.

Posted by Fairlands resident, a member of the Fairlands Elementary School community, on Dec 6, 2012 at 11:56 am I agree with "unbelievable"...I read these letters now JUST to see how some of these folks can possibly turn a story into something political..and yet, they NEVER disappoint. Absolutely amazing..Pleasanton is just one big conspiracy story to read some of these...meanwhile I have lived here for 25 years..raised a daughter thru the great school system..shopped here..eaten here and made great friends here..give it a rest folks..the glass is also half full...
