A possible kidnapping in DeKalb Wednesday afternoon turned into a suspected sexual assault.

Just after noon, DeKalb police responded to a 911 call that suggested someone had been kidnapped from 2726 Shallowford Rd. DeKalb police spokeswoman Mekka Parish said an investigation at the scene uncovered something else: a possible sexual assault.

“(Police) were led to a room with a female victim inside,” Parish said. “In that room, (police) detained a male and a female and they are speaking with investigators at police headquarters.”

No formal charges have been filed at this time.
