A Roanoke Rapids man was arrested Wednesday for a July 11 assault and served warrants for one which occurred in November.

The charges filed against Collin Jarrett Webb, 33, reflect different victims, Roanoke Rapids police Chief Chuck Hasty said in a statement.

Webb faces a count of kidnapping, a count of assault by strangulation, two counts assault on a female, two counts interfere with 911 communications and one count of damage to property.

The kidnapping, assault by strangulation, one of the assault on a female and one of the interfere with 911 communications charges reflect a matter investigated by Lieutenant J. Baggett Monday. That assault reportedly occurred on July 11.

The remaining counts are linked to a November assault in which a separate victim filed warrants against Webb which had not been served. No details were immediately available on that call.

Investigation into the most recent report indicated the victim was at Webb’s residence on Taylor Street when an argument took place. It was not clear what the argument was about, Hasty said.

Webb allegedly struck the victim and choked her. The victim broke free and attempted to use a cellphone, which Webb took.

The victim ran out of the house, but Webb allegedly grabbed her and dragged her inside. The victim finally left the residence and reported it to police later.

Webb was held without opportunity for bond and has an August 2 court date.
