Police were alerted to reports of a domestic incident and a woman being assaulted, kidnapped, and threatened in Harworth, shortly after 7 am on Thursday (8 June).
Making sure the victim was safe, the team then carried out a thorough investigation quickly and arrested a man shortly after.
Matthew Beardsley, aged 42, of Roundhouse Crescent, Worksop, has since been charged with assault, kidnap, possession of a bladed article in public, and stalking.
Beardsley has been remanded in custody and appeared before magistrates in Nottingham on Friday 9 June.
Detective Sergeant Sarah Moore, who’s leading the investigation for Nottinghamshire Police, said:
“Thanks to the support of the victim and the quick work by the team, response and neighbourhood policing officers we were able to locate a suspect and place them before the courts in a matter of hours following a thorough investigation.
“Tackling violent behaviour and acting on any reports of domestic violence remains a key priority for us, so I want to reiterate to anyone who feels vulnerable, unsafe, or is being harmed as a result of a relationship that we will always listen to you and fully investigate.”
