Police responded to a house on the 300 block of Rocky Street early Thursday morning after a 34-year-old woman reported her boyfriend hit her and attempted to sexually assault her. According to police reports, the victim got into an argument with Milton Dennis Thorpe Sr., but the argument escalated to violence when he refused to let the woman leave and assaulted her.

Thorpe, 47, was charged with sexual battery and assault on a female. He was jailed in Nash County under a $2,000 secured bond.
