After officers arrived, they met with the caller who initially dialed 911. SAPD said the caller showed the officers pictures of the male victims who were being held against their will.

The caller also told police that the suspects were demanding to be paid before they would release the victims.

Authorities said that the officers were able to find the suspects and four male victims, ranging in age between 17 and 48 years old.
