Detective Willie Murphy Jr. of the Halifax County Sheriff's Office charged Eddie Cosom Jr., 59, with second-degree rape, second-degree sexual offense and first-degree kidnapping.
Cosom was arrested early this morning and jailed on $100,000 bond. He was given a November 12 court date.
Deputies Shatel Coates and Corey Griffin detained Cosom at the scene.
Murphy declined to disclose the relationship between the victim and Cosom. He did confirm the kidnapping count reflects that Cosom allegedly moved the victim from one location to another to commit the crime. Second-degree rape is forcible rape without the use of a weapon.
Investigation continues and further charges may be pending, Murphy said in a statement.
