MAN CHARGED IN
DOMESTIC KIDNAPPING/ASSAULT
Denver District
Attorney Bill Ritter, Jr. has formally charged a man in
connection with a kidnapping and assault case that occurred last
Monday.
Robert Roeder
(DOB: 11-21-74) is charged with sexual assault (F3),
second-degree burglary (F3), second-degree kidnapping
(F4), stalking (F4), criminal mischief (F4),
third-degree assault (M1) and violation of a protective
order (M2).
The charges allege
that Roeder broke into a home in the 1100 block of Downing and
assaulted a woman there. As Denver police responded to reports
of a woman screaming, two neighbors used a ladder to help the
victim escape through a back window. Roeder was then taken into
custody a short time later.
Roeder remains in
custody in the Denver County Jail. His bond is set at $50,000.
He will appear in Denver County Court, room 12T, on September
14, 2004 at 9 a.m. to be formally advised of the charges.
