Man arrested after kidnapping in connection with domestic violence

Boulder police arrested a man last month after receiving a call that he dragged a woman into a car and drove away while the woman screamed for help.

The man is charged with kidnapping in connection with domestic violence, false imprisonment, reckless endangerment, theft, carrying a concealed weapon, obstruction of justice and resisting justice.

According to a Facebook post from Boulder Police, a witness filmed a woman being dragged into a car on May 17 and called police. Officers then arrived at the scene in the 2300 block of Vineyard Place at 4 p.m. and used Flock surveillance cameras and the vehicle description to narrow down the area where the car may have been traveling.

After obtaining an address, police searched a neighborhood for the man and woman. When they entered the neighborhood, the man jumped out of the vehicle and attempted to flee before being arrested in the 700 block of 38th Street. The man was found with a stolen handgun, according to the post.
