Man accused of kidnapping Grove City woman twice arrested after 2-month manhunt

The U.S. Marshals Office announced that 38-year-old Quinntel Bagley was arrested in Lima on Friday.

LIMA, Ohio — A man accused of kidnapping a woman twice this summer in Grove City, once while he was on the run from police, was arrested Friday after a two-month manhunt.

The U.S. Marshals Office announced that 38-year-old Quinntel Bagley was arrested in Lima.

Bagley was wanted for aggravated burglary, aggravated robbery, failure to comply, parole violation for kidnapping and failure to register as a sex offender.

According to the U.S. Marshals Office, agents and officers from the Ohio State Highway Patrol, FBI and other agencies found him hiding in a house in the 400 block of Cornell Drive.

On June 13, Grove City police responded to a report of a missing woman. Detectives learned that Bagley surprised the woman at her home, grabbed her and forced her into his vehicle.

The woman was found at a gas station three hours after the first report was issued. Officers also found Bagley and arrested him a short time later.

Grove City officers escorted Bagley to a cruiser after he received treatment at Fairfield Medical Center for some injuries. Police say he escaped officers and ran out of a parking garage and into a wooded area nearby. The officers were later disciplined for not properly escorting Bagley.

That same day, police said Bagley reportedly broke into a home, stole an SUV at knifepoint and drove away. The vehicle was located in the area of U.S. 33 and Hamilton Road.

Two weeks ago, Grove City Police Lt. Jason Stern said Bagley kidnapped the same woman again from her home and drove her to west Columbus. She was able to escape unharmed.

Bagley was taken to the Allen County jail where he will remain pending his extradition hearing.
