AUGUSTA, GEORGIA: A man was visiting his old residence to collect some personal belongings when he was met with a shocking sight, "a naked woman locked in a dog cage," claimed Georgia Police that responded to the chilling 911 call. The Richmond County Sheriff's Office arrested five people after receiving a complaint "about a possible victim of false imprisonment." which took place in Augusta on Tuesday, November 29. 

According to the police report, a man who used to live at an Augusta mobile home said he showed up to "retrieve property from the residence" from his "old room." However, when he entered the room, "he observed an unknown light brown skinned female that was naked, beaten severely, and currently locked in a dog cage," toofab reported. He added, the woman allegedly "asked him for help."

The caller even claimed one of the suspects Shonna Powell, eventually contacted him and said of the caged woman. "That is my whore. She stole a bunch of stuff from me so she is going to be my sex slave and I am going to pimp her out until she pays it off." The man also claimed someone else said others were on their way to the home to "have their way with her." Authorities responded to the complaint and were able to detain three suspects at a nearby gas station before heading to the mobile home with a search warrant to conduct an investigation.

When police arrived at the scene another one of the suspects emerged but said there were others in the home. When they did not come out, deputies eventually entered the mobile home. Authorities claimed, they "observed the cage that the female was stated to be located in however it was empty at the time," as well as "both human and animal feces to be in different rooms throughout the residence," reported the source. Police located the distressed woman laying on the bed who was initially reluctant to approach them. The incident report said she "appeared to be injured and emotionally distraught" and was later identified as the victim who was in the cage. 

Law enforcement noted she had "multiple injuries to her facial areas primarily her left eye being severely swollen and bruised." They treated the woman for her injuries at the scene, before being taken to an undisclosed location to protect her privacy, claimed the source. After police made "multiple unsuccessful attempts" to get the main suspect, Powell exited the room. Eventually, the woman exited the room saying she had been asleep the entire time. 

Following the investigation, the five suspects later identified as Anjelika Figueroa, Shonna Powell, DeMichael Dawson, Savannah Piazzi, and Dawson Weston were arrested and charged with Kidnapping, False Imprisonment, Aggravated Assault, and Possession of a Firearm or Knife during the Commission of a Crime. The latter of whom was charged with Possession of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon.
