FREDERICKSBURG, Va. — A Spotsylvania County man accused of holding a woman and two children captive for at least two years was arrested Wednesday.
The Spotsylvania County Sheriff’s Office got a call from someone concerned that they hadn’t heard from members of a family in quite a while.
Deputies went to a house in the 3600 block of Mine Road to check on the family’s welfare. When they got there, a man identified as 43-year-old Kariem Moore appeared reluctant to let the deputies inside.
The Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star reports that’s when a woman and two children, 11 and 8 years old, ran out a side door.
They told deputies that had not been allowed outside for over two years.
Moore was arrested and charged with abduction and assault.
