Kidnapped woman jumps from moving car in Hopkinsville

HOPKINSVILLE, Ky. (FOX 56) — A Hopkinsville man faces several charges, including kidnapping, after a woman jumped from his moving car early Saturday.

On Saturday, June 7, a woman met with officers at the Hopkinsville Police Department and recounted jumping from Deonte Walker-Coleman’s car earlier that morning. According to court documents, she alleged she was being held at gunpoint.

The victim told officers that she and Walker-Coleman had argued over the “information” she allegedly found on his phone. An arrest citation states that he reportedly punched her in the back of the head and strangled her until she lost consciousness.

When she woke up, the victim told police that Walker-Coleman held a gun to her head and ordered her to perform sexually explicit acts.

According to court documents, she tried to take him back to his car to escape, but she got a flat tire. Once they were in Walker-Coleman’s car, he reportedly wouldn’t let her go until he knew where she was going.
