Seaford Police Department Deputy Chief Michael Rapa said the incident began just before 10 a.m., as the woman was approached near her vehicle in her driveway, physically assaulted and placed in her car.
The victim was bound and driven to a residence in south Salisbury, where she was found, he said. She was transported to a hospital, treated for her injuries and later released.

He faces numerous charges, including first-degree kidnapping, first-degree assault, first-degree robbery, aggravated menacing, wearing a disguise during the commission of a felony and theft of a motor vehicle.
