San Bernardino Doctor Held on Revenge Plot

A San Bernardino doctor and another man were booked on suspicion of assault with intent to commit murder in a kidnapping and beating case involving Gunter Herbert Seutter, a 38 year old Los Angeles area packing plant foreman. Seutter said he was kidnapped last June 18, forced at gunpoint to drive to his apartment, then pistol whipped and shot twice. Dr. Gallery admitted offering $5,000 to beat Seutter up but denied plans to kill. The doctor said a past romance with Heidi Seutter influenced the motive. Seutter believed captors mistook him for his brother involved in Stuttgart politics. Gallery previously practiced in Denver for 13 years and moved to San Bernardino three months ago.
