The man has been arrested previously for domestic violence.
HARRISON, Ohio - Jarrod Rodriguez, 40, from Ohio is under arrest on several violent felony charges after he was accused of hiding in a woman’s trunk to assault and kidnap her,“I was on my way to school and I got into my car and onto the highway, and he had hid in the hatchback. He was waiting for me,” the woman said. “He jumped in the front seat and started beating me. I didn’t know he was in my car.”“We were fighting,” she said. “We’ve been fighting.
Once the victim drove off, Rodriguez climbed out of the trunk and into her passenger seat, according to court records.Rodriguez pulled out a “black handgun and a knife out of his backpack” and put the gun to the woman’s side, according to police. “He then ordered her to drive faster and told her where to go, all while holding the gun to her side,” the affidavit said. “Mr. Rodriguez then told her he would shoot her up with enough heroin to make her overdose.”This is when witnesses called 911 and reported Rodriguez, armed with a gun, hitting the woman to try and get her back into the vehicle.He was arrested on Thursday and made his first court appearance on Friday.
He has been arrested before for domestic violence in 2018 when he was accused of pushing his wife and the mother of his children into a wall. The charge was dropped a few months later when a witness did not appear to testify. Rodriguez was charged last year with misdemeanor drug possession and receiving stolen property. Both of those charges also ultimately were dismissed or ignored.
