BATON ROUGE, LA (WAFB) -A man was arrested Thursday after allegedly raping a woman and cutting her throat.

Manuel A. Mejia, 40, of Baker, was arrested Thursday, January 19 and is charged with attempted first degree murder, second degree kidnapping, and first degree rape.

Investigators with the Baton Rouge Police Department believe Mejia contacted the 38-year-old female victim Wednesday night in the 8400 block of Harry Dr. around 11:30 p.m. as the two agreed to engage in sexual intercourse for $60. Officials say the victim willingly entered Mejia's vehicle and was driven to his home on Epperson St. in Baker.

Officials say while at the home, Mejia struck the victim in the head with a black handgun, bound her arms and legs, and proceeded to rape her for several hours.

Afterwards, officials say in addition to leaving her bound, he gagged her and placing her on the floor of his vehicle behind the driver side seat to conceal her from view. Mejia then returned the victim to the area where he initially picked her up. Officials say while leaving her bound and gagged, Mejia then cut the victim's throat with a sharp object and left her in a parking lot.

The victim was found by a passerby, who rendered aid until EMS arrived on scene. The victim was transported to Our Lady of the Lake Hospital and is expected to survive.
The victim was able to identify Mejia in a six-person photographic lineup.

Mejia was taken into custody with the assistance of the Baker Police Department and the East Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office and was booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison. He was also wanted for his involvement in the armed robbery of the Tortilleria Convenience Store on January 2.

Mejia and the other suspect in the armed robbery case, Carlos Mejia, are both in the U.S. illegally from Honduras.

Trump needs to load up about 10 planes FULL of illegals and send them back to El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala.

Get the party started.

BING...BING...BING

Let them see with their own eyes as they unload them off the plane that they will be deported and stop this human trafficking in it's tracks! Start stopping them from making the trek up through Mexico.

Mexico...we are dealing with you, don't you worry.

They bring the lifestyle of their country with them here in the USA - that is why they gotta go!

Last year a 50yr old female restaurant worker had her throat slashed and died. The culprit was a 20 yr old illegal honduran - after he killed her, he took off in his suv. Pennsylvania is listed as NOT giving dl's to illegals. They all drive. How may times do these crimes have to occur before it is realized by ALL, they gotta go - they are NUTS! You would have to have your head in the sand to not realize what is going on; to rest with "no hate, everyone is welcome" is asinine. People with that belief have not been affected personally YET.

South of the border natives are notoriously unable to control their urge to kill - he could have left his job but no, he had to slash her throat and take her life. Don't believe he was ever found. They have connections all over this country, are allowed to work under the table and have fake id anyway.

Oh yes, artist:

They gotta go!!

BING! BING! BING!

Cannot wait to starting seeing those weekly reports of all the crimes committed by illegal aliens in all those Sanctuary cities. I am sure it will be quite eye opening especially to all those Liberal idiots that think they are just here for a better life.
