A father and son are accused of turning a routine wildlife research trip into a terrifying 15-hour hostage ordeal after allegedly abducting two US Forest Service biologists at gunpoint in a remote Northern California forest, federal authorities said. Joseph Charles Henrichsen, 49, and his son, Phoenix Henrichsen, 23, were charged Monday with kidnapping federal employees after authorities say they held the women captive inside a camping trailer near Gumboot Lake Campground in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest. The biologists were conducting a Forest Service study of Northern California frog habitats on Thursday when Joseph Henrichsen allegedly confronted them with an AR-15-style rifle, ordered them to raise their hands and zip-tied their wrists behind their backs, according to an FBI affidavit.
