A man wanted in connection with a reported abduction and assault and battery is now in custody.
Paul Parker Gordon, 64, of 19142 Potomac Crest Drive in Triangle, was arrested on Thursday, July 23. Police had been searching for him since Monday, July 21, after he was charged following an assault on a woman at a home in the 4700 block of Kilbane Road in Dale City.
The victim told police that Gordon had followed her to her car and grabbed her by the arm, preventing her from leaving. The two managed to separate and Gordon fled the scene before police arrived.
The victim suffered minor injuries.
Gordon is charged with abduction along with assault and battery, with a pending court date and an unavailable bond, said police.
In an unrelated incident that occurred in the 9100 block of Yorkshire Lane near Manassas on Sunday, July 26, police were called at 7:45 p.m. to a home where an argument between two people was taking place.
