DES MOINES, Wash. - A man has been booked into the King County Jail on investigation of felony assault and unlawful restraint after Des Moines Police say he held a woman captive, prompting a SWAT response.
Officers were dispatched to the 600 block of South 194th Street just after 1 p.m. According to Des Moines police, a 911 caller had reported that a partially-clothed woman was running down the street, yelling that she had been held captive by a man in a nearby home.
