Palmyra man lied about being held hostage for $250 by outlaw motorcycle gang, police say
Donald Gross of Palmyra called the Carlisle Police department asking to be rescued from an outlaw motorcycle gang that was holding him hostage, at Applebee’s near the Carlisle Commons, for $250.
When police arrived at the restaurant there was no sign of Gross, or a motorcycle gang.
As officers checked the area, their K9 unit found Gross leaving a nearby movie theater. Police then discovered that he was wanted by Swatara Township police on a charge of retail theft.
Carlisle police took Gross into custody for the warrant as well as charges of filing false reports. Gross’ odd behavior continued in the squad car where he repeatedly spat during the ride to the booking center.
