Trucker Arrested On I 77 In Kidnapping Case
West Virginia state police say 42 year old Brandon Lord Wilkins kidnapped Linda Knepp, handcuffed her to a bar in the cab, and held her on I 77 before a Saturday arrest. Knepp, with a black eye and handcuff marks, was later at the Women's Resource Center in Beckley while Wilkins remained in Southern Regional Jail. The truck was stopped at mile marker 38.5. Authorities triangulated his cell location with Ohio to rescue Knepp and arrest Wilkins on kidnapping domestic battery and domestic assault charges.
