Two men flagged down a Lyft driver and offered to pay for a ride but instead held a gun to his head and ordered him to drive around before dawn on Sunday in Oklahoma before the assailants were dropped off and arrested nearby, authorities said.

Jesse Alan Lawson, 26, and Christopher Hayes, 27, face charges of kidnapping and robbery and weapons violations, online jail booking records show.

The incident happened on Sunday when police said the suspects flagged down the driver near a nightclub in Oklahoma City’s business district known as Bricktown, according to a police report obtained by Law&Crime.
