The victim called police just after 4 a.m. on Jan. 18 to report the assault. It happened at Americas Best Value Inn at 1155 IH-10. An officer learned that the victim had used a website to find a prostitute. 

Investigators say when the victim arrived, he was confronted by two men and two women. Over the next several hours, he was bound, assaulted, robbed and threatened with death by the four suspects according to police. 

Police say the victim was made to get into his own vehicle with the suspects. They dropped him off in a park in the 3900 block of Delaware. 

Investigators are looking for Joshua Allen Sees, a 22-year-old transient, as the fourth suspect. The department shared a photo of Sees in an orange shirt, and said he has many tattoos on his arms and hands. 

He's wanted on a warrant for the same three charges as those already arrested.
