Man who allegedly raped and kidnapped woman from Wal Mart denied bond

David Welker was held without bond for the kidnapping and abduction of a woman behind a Orlando, Florida Wal-Mart. He had been released from a work release program March 25, after serving an 18 month sentence for gun charges.

On Thursday, a judge denied Welker bond, calling him a danger to the community.
Welker was arrested Wednesday night after anonymous tips to CrimeLine led authorities to his location.


On Tuesday, Welker allegedly kidnapped the woman at the Wal-Mart on John Young Parkway at Sand Lake Road.

He used a gun to threaten the toddler awhile raping the woman, and after the rape, Welker allegedly robbed the victim before locking his victim in the trunk of the car. The victim was able to call for help from the trunk.
