The long-distance boyfriend of a woman in Texas reportedly stabbed her with a pair of scissors and forced her to write a suicide note before allegedly attempting to take her to Mexico against her will.
On March 29, a 21-year-old man who had been engaging in a long-distance relationship with a woman from College Station for over a year allegedly went to her residence without an invitation. The woman allowed him to come inside, and while he was there, he allegedly stabbed a pair of scissors into her neck. What was assumed to be a suicide note was reportedly left in her apartment, and the man allegedly made her leave with him in his vehicle. He reportedly planned to take her to Mexico.
According to reports, the alleged victim sent text messages to her father and told him she needed him to call the police. The authorities were notified, and the College Station Police Department began to investigate the situation. They used the woman’s cell phone signal to get a location, and officers found the pair at a local CVS store.
The woman was bleeding from her neck and hand, and she reportedly told the police the man stabbed her and forced her to accompany him. She said she felt like her life would have been in danger if she did not comply. The fire department took her to a local hospital, and they reported that the knife wound was close to an artery.
The man was taken into custody and booked into the Brazos County Detention Center. He is facing preliminary charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and aggravated kidnapping with intent to inflict bodily injury. According to jail records, he is being held in lieu of an $800,000 bond.
