Troy David Kinchen, 29, was arrested after allegedly raping a 23 year old Greenville woman who was 9 months pregnant. He allegedly broke into the woman’s home, waking her up before raping and strangling her, then fleeing. He’s being held at Pitt County Detention Center on an over $1 million bond on charges of 2nd degree rape, communicating threats, assault by strangulation (presumed to be by choking, since no weapon was present on Kinchen when arrested), and 2 1st degree burglary counts.
The second burglary charge stems from an attempt to gain entry at a nearby residence on Hop Tyson Road after the assault, a news release stated.Officer Mike Harper said it seems the victim did not know her attacker, but they are still looking into any possible relationship between the two. Harper was also unsure how the man gained entry to the residence.
The woman was treated for the rape and pregnancy at Pitt County Memorial Hospital.
