Jaguars safety Earl Wolff was released unharmed in Hope Mills, N.C., after he was kidnapped by a group of armed men on Feb. 23, police said. A suspect was arrested Thursday.
The NFL defensive back was abducted by a group of gunmen last month, but was later returned unharmed, The Fayetteville Observer has reported.
Media reports say one arrest has been made and police are not sure if Wolff was the target or if the kidnapping and robbery were random. Fayetteville, North Carolina Police said they received a 911 call of Wolff being forced into a car by gunmen at about 3 a.m. on February 23.
