Did He Get The Injuries After the Police Found Out He Was Wasting Their Time?

Here comes another fake kidnapping. I'm really starting to consider creating a tag for tracking these.

This unnamed guy from Cambridge made up a story about being attacked outside Sidelines Sports Bar & Grill, where he was knocked unconscious, thrown into a car, later to be dropped off in Woodstock where he discovered his wallet and cellphone were missing. It turned out to be all a lie. We have no idea why. all we know is he's being charged with public mischief.

The weirdest part was the original story said he had sustained injuries. So...if it was all a lie, who hit him? And why bother with such an elaborate fake story? What's he hiding?
