Two men were arrested Wednesday for kidnapping after a disturbance at a Kanawha County residence.
Dispatchers said the call came in about 10 a.m. from a woman who said someone had a gun pointed at her face. The victim alleged Timothy Bias, 53, of Charleston threatened to kill her and her dog unless she returned his pills to him. A criminal complaint alleged Charles Bronaugh, 48, of Campbells Creek, helped keep her in the apartment.
Police responded to a residence in the 6500 block of Roosevelt Avenue in Kanawha City.
Investigators told Eyewitness News they believe the disturbance was drug related.
