SALINA —Three people have been arrested and police are looking for a fourth person in connection with beating and holding a woman against her will Monday at a residence at 616 S. Ninth.
Salina Police Capt. Mike Sweeney said the incident began after the victim, 34-year-old Kristi Dean, was accused to taking money from other residents in the home.
Sweeney said Dean was kicked, beaten and had obscene messages written on her between 7 a.m. and 1 p.m. Monday.
She was then wrapped up in a blanket, placed in a car and dumped in an alley in north Salina. A friend later found Dean.
Police became involved Tuesday after someone shared a cellphone picture showing a severely beaten Dean.
Dean is at Salina Regional Health Center for treatment of injuries that include a fractured back, fractured eye socket, fractured cheek and several bruises.
Arrested on allegations aggravated kidnapping, aggravated battery and criminal threat were Ondrya Biles, 36; Corey Jackson, 35; and James Waller, 16. Police still are looking for a fourth suspect, reportedly a teenage girl.
