Athens Police Arrest A Man For Allegedly Kidnapping And Beating A Woman

34-year old Graylon Scott Ervin faces charges of aggravated burglary and kidnapping.

Officials say the charges stem from several incidents over the last week in which the woman claims to have been kidnapped and released; the locations ranged from an apartment on Knoxville Avenue to the McMinn County Courthouse.

The woman who reported the kidnapping eventually ended up at a hospital Thursday; where she called Athens Police.

Officers arrested Ervin Friday morning when he reportedly showed up again at the Knoxville Avenue apartment where the victim was staying.
