Police say she was not seriously hurt. 42-year-old James Walker, Jr. is now facing burglary and kidnapping charges. The victim says Walker came into her home, showed a knife, then made her leave with him in the car. She told officers Walker drove around Owensboro then dropped her back off at home when he learned police had been looking for her. Walker is in the Daviess County Jail tonight.
