Man arrested for kidnapping, assault

TAHLEQUAH — A Tahlequah man was arrested early Friday morning on allegations he assaulted a woman and held her captive.

Police said they were called to a residence on East Shawnee because a woman was screaming. When no one responded at the home’s door, officers forced their way inside and arrested Jacob L. Rock, 33. Police said they found a woman inside a bedroom, and the woman had been assaulted and wasn’t allowed to leave.

Rock was booked for kidnapping and domestic assault and battery in the presence of a minor.

Where do you think bicycle trails are most needed in Cherokee County?

In the downtown corridor.
Not downtown, because it would be too congested, but on peripheral streets, like Bluff, Downing and College, and Muskogee but not downtown.
On the rural highways mainly in recreational areas, like Highways 10 and 82.
Only in special areas, like parks.
I do not think Cherokee County needs any (or more) bike trails.
