A call came in that a woman was in danger and being held against her will at a River Valley home.

When police arrived they found the female victim visibly distraught. She told police she had been assaulted and that her attacker was dangerous.

The man was found within the home and was arrested.

While in the residence police saw controlled substances.

The couple were removed from the home while police obtained a search warrant.

The 57 year old River Valley resident now faces charges of possession of controlled substances for the purpose of trafficking, possession of property obtained by crime, assault and sexual assault.
