Police arrested an Oklahoma City man and his son last week after an officer said he walked into the father's bedroom and found the son trying to smother a bloodied and partially tied-up prostitute.

Charles Campbell, 75, and Scott Campbell, 47, remained at the Oklahoma County jail today in lieu of $55,000 bail, a jail spokeswoman said. Police arrested them Thursday at their apartment in the 2000 block of N Blackwelder Avenue on complaints of kidnapping and assault with a deadly weapon.

The victim, who police identified only as a woman born in 1972, said she met two men the previous morning when they offered her a ride and a beer, according to a police report released today. She told police the elder man offered her $25 for a "date," but she told them she would only do it for $60 or $80 and left when they started calling her names.

The victim said the younger man saw her the next day, and she again agreed to go with him in his car when he offered her beer, the report states. She told officers she was attacked when she got to the Campbells' apartment.

"You're never gonna leave here alive," the younger man said, according to the victim. "We're gonna tie you up, gang rape you and put you in the garbage."

A neighbor called police when he heard a woman screaming, the report states. Charles Campbell let an officer inside the apartment, and the officer opened the cracked door to a bedroom from which he heard a scream.

The bleeding woman had been choked and beaten in the face with a rolling pin, according to the report. Her clothes were torn and she had a dark rope tied around one wrist and a white electrical cord tied around one ankle. Officers said Scott Campbell was attempting to smother her with a pillow.
