Kurt MacKenzie Ray, 43, of 620 Fowler Hill Road, Wellsburg, WV, is facing charges of kidnapping, nighttime burglary, wanton endangerment with a firearm, and sexual assault of a woman he knew in Beech Bottom.
Man Charged With Kidnapping, Sexual Assault, is the headline from the Wheeling (WV) Intellengencer:
The Brooke County Sheriff’s Department said the woman was reported missing at 3:15 a.m. [Friday January 11]after her children, ages 5 and 7, awoke to find her missing and went to the home of a neighbor, who called the sheriff’s department.
The sheriff’s department said the woman was seen by an off-duty Wellsburg police officer about 10 minutes later walking with Ray near the Valley Haven Geriatric Center, which is on Sesame Street in Beech Bottom. Brooke County Sheriff Richard Ferguson said the woman signaled to the police officer that she needed help, and Ray was apprehended soon after by deputies.
Ferguson found a gun used in the alleged kidnapping at the vicinity of the crime, and the victim was taken to the hospital, but without making a full statement as of this time.
