A Buncombe County man was indicted by a Haywood County after allegedly kidnapping and assaulting a woman.
Byron Dwaun Gibson, 45, allegedly kidnapped a woman in September of last year “by unlawfully confining her, without her consent, for the purpose of terrorizing [her].”
In addition, court documents allege that Gibson struck the victim in the face and body with his hands and feet, as well as “holding her at knife point while threatening her and forcibly cutting her hair with scissors.”
Ultimately Gibson was charged with assault on a female and assault with a deadly weapon, both misdemeanors, and second-degree kidnapping, a felony.
