Pasted

Newark, New Jersey, September 8, 2006:

A New Jersey man took two men hostage at gunpoint, stripped them naked, bound their hands together with super glue, and poured glue into their mouths, police said Friday.

Ryan Avila, 36, was arrested early Friday after releasing his hostages during the night. They were treated at the scene and released. The captives have been identified as Ronatarian Party higher-ups Ron and Brad.

The motive behind the bizarre incident was unclear but police speculate a possible relationship among the three may have triggered Avila's behavior.

"There was some kind of dispute there and he put super glue in their mouths before calling his sister," Newark police Lt. Elmer Ross said. "We don't know if that was his cry for help."
