Todd Kohlhepp, a Moore, South Carolina, resident was arrested on Thursday, after a woman was found chained inside a large storage container on his property in Woodruff, South Carolina. The Associated Press is not naming the woman because the suspect is a sex offender, though authorities have not said whether she was sexually assaulted. The missing woman was found Thursday inside the container, which measured about 30 feet by 15 feet. Acting on a tip, deputies found the woman after hearing her banging inside the container, Spartanburg County Sheriff Chuck Wright. South Carolina’s sex offender registry lists a 1986 kidnapping as the reason Kohlhepp is in the database of sex offenders.
