A Salina man was arrested Saturday on multiple charges, after allegedly beating, sodomizing, and holding a 31-year-old woman against her will in a motel room.

Police Captain Mike Sweeney said 39-year-old Joshua Moore and the woman rented a room at the Travelers Lodge 245 S. Broadway on September 16th.

Moore and the woman got into an argument, and Moore allegedly beat the woman, sodomized her, knocked her unconscious on a more than one occasion, and would not allow her to leave the room until September 19th.

Moore is also alleged to have threaten to cut the throat of the woman with a knife. At one point during the three days, Moore reportedly barricaded the door to the room with a table and chairs.

The woman was eventually able to convince Moore to let her go.

The woman took a cab to the emergency room at Salina Regional Health Center, and called police.

The woman was treated for bruising over most of her body, and a cut lip. She was treated and released.

Moore was arrested Saturday at the room, and will face requested charges of aggravated criminal sodomy, aggravated kidnapping,aggravated battery, criminal threats, and aggravated assault.
