KUNA - Oscar Contreras Jr., 27, is charged with attempted rape, domestic assault and battery and false imprisonment. He is in jail and set to be arraigned Monday in District Court.
His estranged wife, 25, told deputies that he came to her Kuna home Saturday night and demanded they reconcile. The couple, married eight years, recently separated. When she refused, he got angry and pushed her to the ground. She tried to call 911, but he took the phone, forced her into a room and refused to let her leave. Sunday morning, he attempted to rape her, but she fought back, and he left with their 14-month-old son.
Deputies worked with friends and family members to arrange a meeting with Contreras. About 12:45 p.m., Contreras was taken into custody at a Meridian restaurant. The child was returned to his mother.
