A father and son, Joseph Charles Henrichsen, 49, and Phoenix Henrichsen, 23, have been charged with the armed kidnapping of two federal biologists in Northern California. The incident occurred near Gumboot Lake in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, where Joseph allegedly approached the biologists with an AR-15 rifle, restraining them with plastic ties. He forced them to a nearby trailer, where they were held for hours. During negotiations, Joseph claimed to have a grenade and threatened to use it. The victims were released early Friday, and the suspects surrendered. If convicted, they face life imprisonment.
