Bridgeport police made an arrest in a carjacking and kidnapping incident that happened last summer.
Police say the victim was walking to his Dodge Ram when several armed suspects forced him into his own truck.
They say he was then driven to a gas station and forced to use an ATM to take money out of his account.
Police later identified Luis Martinez as a suspect. He was already in jail on robbery and carjacking charges.
Martinez is now facing additional robbery, kidnapping and assault charges.
Police are still looking for his alleged accomplices.
