Dallas teen charged with holding 67-year-old woman hostage, raping her repeatedly for hours
On September 21, police in Dallas, Texas, were called to the apartment of a 67-year-old woman living in the 9900 block of Whitehurst Drive after one of her neighbors found the woman lying on the floor of her apartment and crying that she had been held captive in her own apartment and raped repeatedly over a period of hours. Police received that call at approximately 11:40 a.m., according to CBS DFW News. Dallas police said that an individual working at the apartment complex spotted a young man leaving the woman’s apartment. That employee called 911 and stayed on the phone with police as he followed the suspect.
When police arrived, they arrested 18-year-old Corey Lindale Davis near 9759 Forest Lane in the Lake Highlands section of Dallas. Davis told police that he was innocent of any wrong-doings regarding the woman’s sexual assault. However, police were successful in obtaining a surveillance video of Davis “forcing his way into the woman’s apartment,” according to WFAA. In that video, police say that Davis can be seen forcing his way into the woman’s apartment at 12:40 a.m. and not leaving her apartment until 11:15 a.m. the next day. Police also found items from the woman’s apartment on Davis’ person when they arrested him.
“The victim was sent to a local hospital for injuries and a forensic exam. She told police that the man was a stranger who had sexually assaulted her repeatedly over the course of several hours,” according to The Dallas Morning News. Davis was charged with aggravated sexual assault and should be looking at additional charges to include home invasion and theft. Police have no evidence currently linking Davis to any other sexual assaults; but Davis’ DNA was collected to see if he can be connected to any other outstanding cases.
