Local man charged with DUII, kidnap, rape
10 p.m., Thursday, Nov. 8, 2007
A Klamath Falls man was charged with driving a car drunk in September and holding a woman against her will in his car to try and rape her.
A grand jury indicted Michael McLeod, 23, on charges of kidnapping, attempted rape, first-degree sexual abuse, hit and run and driving under the influence of intoxicants. He was arraigned on the charges Wednesday.
City police officers were investigating McLeod for a DUII Sept. 8 when they discovered he reportedly drove his car up a hill behind Oregon Institute of Technology, parked and trapped a woman in his car, according to court documents.
Officers initially arrested him on charges of kidnapping and harassment, but a grand jury found evidence supporting stiffer charges.
