A Palm Coast man who went to a home to collect a debt Saturday afternoon was instead met by an armed man who forced him into a car and demanded cash, according to the Flagler County Sheriff's Office.

The 21-year-old victim told deputies that he pulled into the driveway of the home on Pony Lane just after 5 p.m. when Brandon Washington, 20, forced the victim into a car.

Deputies said that vehicle was driven by Meghan Smith, 22, and Manuel Cabral Jr., 22, was a passenger.

Washington, who was reported to be carrying a gun in his waistband, directed Smith to drive the victim to a home on Pope Lane where the victim said he could get cash.

Once at the home, the victim was allowed out of the car. Rather than retreiving money and returning, he called 911 to report the crime.

When the victim failed to come back out, Smith and Cabral left the scene, but were stopped by a Flagler County deputies at the intersection of Pheasant and Phoenix Lanes in Palm Coast.

Both were charged with false imprisonment and were being held at the Flagler County Inmate Facility without bond Sunday morning. The victim?s car was recovered at the Pony Lane home.

Washington remained at large Sunday morning.

Flagler County Sheriff Donald Fleming said four women, all acquainted with Washington, were arrested earlier Saturday after a robbery of a restaurant in the Old Kings Commons Shopping area in Palm Coast.
