Man Faces Sexual Assault Charge
WEST VIRGINIA....
Police responded late this week to a Dunbar home after receiving a call about an alleged kidnapping and sexual assault of a 15-year-old boy. Forty-five year old Gary Lee Whitten was arrested after fleeing from the basement of the home when the caller interrupted him. Police say Whitten had been performing oral sex on the boy. Whitten was running across the railroad tracks toward the Travelodge when Lt. W. Moss with the Dunbar Police Department detained him. The boy told police he had been riding his bike from his friend's house when Whitten grabbed him in front of the home and forced himinto the basement. Whitten, who faces felony kidnapping and third-degree sexual assault, was being held without bond Friday at South Central Regional Jail.
