SUSPECT FACES CHARGES RELATED TO KIDNAPPING AND AGGRAVATED ASSAULT

DavidOgden1On 5/9/14, at approximately 8:30 AM, officers from the Benton Police Department responded to an address on Fifth Street on report of a disturbance.  Upon their arrival, they made contact with two victims in the case who said a suspect kidnapped one of them and caused physical harm to both of them.  
 
A female victim in the incident said the suspect, identified as David Ogden (30 YOA), kidnapped and held her at knife point for a number of hours.  She said he refused to allow her to call for help and made threats to harm her during the ordeal.  A male victim in the case came to check on the female victim when he was confronted by Ogden and received minor physical injuries as a result.  Ogden fled the scene prior to officers’ arrival on-scene.  
 
Attempts to located Ogden during the initial call were unsuccessful, therefore officers obtained a warrant for his arrest.  Ogden was located on the morning of 5/12/14 and taken into custody without incident.  
 
Ogden is charged with Kidnapping, Aggravated Residential Burglary, Domestic Battery 2nd Degree, Aggravated Assault, Terroristic Threatening, Domestic Battery 3rd Degree, and Interference with Emergency Communications.  Ogden was already on our most wanted list for other warrant charges and with this being an on-going investigation he could face additional charges as it proceeds.
