Neighbors heard a woman screaming for help and called 911.
Police had to use a ladder to climb up to a second-story window.

An officer eventually grabbed a ladder nearby and climbed to the second floor. When he walked into the room, the woman was trembling and crying. She had a metal dog chain around her neck that was secured by a MasterLock and bolted to the floor.
“I’m sorry, sir,” she told the officer.
The officer used an axe to break the chain away from the floor.
“Thank you so much,” she said.

An arrest citation reviewed by Law&Crime says May and the woman were arguing when he allegedly held her down on the floor, grabbed a machete and used it to cut off most of her hair. He also “slapped the victim around” and threatened to kill her multiple times, the police report says.
May also forced her to remove some of her clothing, stating “you’re gonna get it tonight” and “I told you next time you leave and don’t come home I’d kill you” before he slapped her, the citation said.
He then allegedly tied the chain around her neck and bolted it to the floor before taking her phone and leaving her there, according to the police document.
