Woman reportedly held against her will in Lyon County campground; Chicago man arrested

An investigation into a physical and sexual assault at a campground in Lyon County led to the arrest of a Chicago man on multiple charges.

Kentucky State Police said 28-year-old Timothy Doe of Chicago was taken into custody after a female victim told Indiana police she was held against her will in a camper at the Eddy Vegas Campground in Eddyville earlier this month.

Authorities said the victim reported that she was physically and sexually abused before she was finally able to escape and return home to Indiana.

According to police, Doe was originally picked up in Eddyville on an arrest warrant for first-degree strangulation on April 10th, but detectives said further evidence led to more charges being filed. Doe is now charged with rape, sodomy and kidnapping.

He is lodged in the Crittenden County Detention Center.

State Police ask that anyone with information about the incident or any previous encounters with Doe to contact KSP Post 1.
