Domestic incident turns into suspected violent kidnapping | News

Lawton Police Officer Nicholas Clayton said he was called to a home in the 3100 block of Northwest Ferris Avenue around 2:45 a.m. Oct. 21 for a home visit. He spoke to a woman who said she had been romantically involved with Colby for about a month and that he had been staying at her house.

Earlier that night, the woman said she was planning to go to the store and then to a friend's house when Colby came home and stopped her from leaving, Clayton explained. She said he grabbed her face, pushed her against a wall and fell on top of her, holding her while he took off her shoes, the probable cause affidavit states. When she told him she was calling police, she said he took her phone, turned it off and repeatedly told her he would kill her if she left, the officer said. She said he had been in prison and had committed violent acts, so she feared he would hurt her.

A witness said Clayton Colby barricaded the front door with a couch and other items so no one could enter or exit the home, the affidavit said. The woman said that when he realized police were being called, he approached her with a pocket knife in his hand and stabbed the wall while again telling her he was going to kill her, Clayton said.

Colby has prior felony convictions in Comanche County: November 2011, uttering a forged instrument; February 2014, knowingly concealing stolen property; January 2017, uttering a forged instrument; and October 2017, theft of a car.

Colby is being held on $50,000 bail with the condition that he have no contact with the woman or the home. He will return to court for his preliminary hearing on January 10, 2025 at 3 p.m., records show.
