LAS VEGAS, NV (KXNT) - A south valley freeway onramp was closed Tuesday night as police investigated a possible kidanpping.

It all began when police received a call about a man forcing a woman into a car at an apartment complex near Maryland Parkway and Flamingo.

After police located the car they gave chase, a chase that eventually ended on the Blue Diamond Road onramp to 15S. Metro closed that onramp once a stop was made and the man and woman secured.

Both people were taken to University Medical Center for minor injuries. Police are continuing to investigate. So far, no charges have been filed.
