Folks, you just can't make this stuff up. Norberto Susini, a 29-year-old nephew of Alex Rodriguez, was kidnapped and held for ransom at a New York City hotel last night. Why, you may ask? Well, because the deal for a $600,000 Lamborghini that he was trying to pull-off went south—way south. His two prospective buyers had second thoughts and wanted their hefty deposit back. When A-Fraud's kin said "no", the bad stuff started happening. The two welshers kept Susini against his will in a midtown hotel room and called some of his "associates" demanding a $35,000 ransom—which we're guessing was the amount of the down-payment (hey, we don't watch Columbo re-runs for nothing). Anyhow, instead of paying the ransom, New York's Finest were summoned and arrested the low-lifes. Just another night in Baghdad-On-The-Hudson.
