A doorbell video that appeared to show a woman being abducted is believed to be a case of domestic violence.

According to a news release, a 22-year-old man has been booked into Sedgwick County Jail for charges of aggravated battery strangulation, two counts of domestic simple battery and criminal restraint.

On Tuesday afternoon, Wichita Police Investigators received a phone call, from a female claiming to be the individual investigators were attempting to identify. Investigators immediately responded to her location, made contact, and transported her to City Hall so detectives could conduct a victim interview.

At this stage of the investigation, we believe this incident is a case of domestic violence where the female was victimized by her boyfriend. The female does not have any significant injuries.

“We want to thank the public for sharing the video and still images that generated additional attention about this incident, we do believe it led the female to call us saying she was the person we were looking for,” police said in a statement.

“As we stressed this morning, we do not have any reason to believe there is ongoing danger to the general public.”
