The victim in the case was reportedly assaulted by strangulation and dragged by hand away from his residence, sustaining minor injuries, for which he was treated, according to Lieutenant Joseph Sealey of the Halifax County Sheriff's Office.

Sealey said it is not clear what prompted the alleged assault, which occurred shortly before 7:30 p.m.

The fight, he said, was reportedly started by Terrell Jefferson, 34, of Roanoke Rapids, one of the people wanted in the fray, Sealey said.

Heather Nicole Williams, 26, is also wanted for simple assault and aiding and abetting. It is not clear the relationship between the three, Sealey said.

Jefferson is wanted for assault by strangulation, simple assault, second-degree kidnapping and interfering with 911 services.

Anyone with information on the whereabouts of the pair is encouraged to call the sheriff's office at 252-583-8201 or Crimestoppers at 252-583-4444.
