HARRIS COUNTY, Texas — New surveillance video captures what Texas deputies said is a woman being dragged back to a home against her will.

Suspect Jose Armando Carcamo-Perdomo, 22, is facing aggravated kidnapping and assault charges.

Authorities reported that they apprehended him this week after capturing him at a residence on Elderberry and Rimwood in northeast Harris County, in close proximity to an elementary school.

“She attempted to escape, but the accused forcibly brought her back inside the house against her will,” a Harris County judge explained. “He restrained her and then committed sexual assault.”

Prosecutors said this all started when Carcamo-Perdomo brought the victim willingly from New York to Houston.

But deputies said when she arrived, the suspect took her passport and held her against her will.

“She was not allowed to leave that room for five or more days without food or water,” a judge said.

Prosecutors said that when she finally made a run for it, the neighbor who captured the surveillance video took action.

“As soon as I drove out of the fence at work, I called 911 to report a possible child abduction,” the neighbor said.

He does not want to be identified, but told ABC Houston affiliate KTRK he knew something was off and thought it was a child at the time.

“It’s very disheartening,” he said.

Investigators said when they finally arrived at the home, they found the woman locked in a closet.

The neighbor told KTRK he wishes he could have done more.

“Being so close, I feel frustrated that I didn’t notice sooner or do more, despite sensing something was off,” he expressed. “It’s possible it could have made a significant difference for others, perhaps other victims.”

The sheriff’s office does believe there could be more victims. They’re asking anyone who’s come in contact with the suspect to contact them.

ICE also confirmed they now have a detainer on Carcamo, who they say entered the country illegally in 2020 from Honduras.
