Um, what happened with an Idaho firefighter? They kidnapped someone?

A 22-year-old Hagerman firefighter, Steen Lamb, remains in Ada County custody. His crime? Luring a man into the Eagle foothills, tying the man up, and proceeding to tase and beat him up. With the help of accomplice, no less.

According to investigators, Lamb and the victim had a previous connection, and that's what lead to them meeting, before the attack began.

Lamb has been with the Hagerman Fire Department for the past six months.
