A Roseburg man was jailed on a strangulation charge Monday afternoon.
A report from the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office said just before 4:30 p.m. 54-year old Troy Davis was arrested after reports came in saying he was dragging the victim off a neighbor’s porch as she yelled for help. The incident reportedly took place in the 200 block of Saddle Butte Lane. The victim said the man then choked her and threw her down on the bed and shoved her face into the mattress for around two minutes, impairing her breathing.
Davis was also held for harassment. After arraignment, he was held on $7,500 bail but was released from custody on Tuesday.
