TOLEDO, OHIO -- Police have charged the man who they say held a woman captive for three days and read Bible passages to her.

34-year-old Troy Brisport is accused of abducting and holding Shykea Boykin against her will for three days.  Police found Boykin Saturday, outside Brisport's apartment on Secor Road, wearing a t-shirt and a diaper.    She was handcuffed and wasn't wearing any shoes.

Brisport was charged with kidnapping and felonious assault in court Tuesday.

Police say Brisport picked up Boykin in Detroit and drove her to his residence at the Tamarack Apartments. Boykin says Brisport handcuffed her wrists and ankles, put a gag in her mouth, undressed her and put an adult diaper on her.

Toledo Police say it does not appear that Brisport sexually assaulted or beat Boykin while she was being held.

Brisport is being held on $400,000 bond.
