A 50-year-old man was arrested Saturday after a woman said he tried to rape her, and in a separate incident on Sunday, a 43-year-old Hixson woman was charged with abuse after she withheld pain pills from two disabled adults, court records show.

George Davis was arrested after a woman told police he hit, slapped and choked her. The woman, who will not be identified by the Times Free Press, said she recently met Davis and the two were drinking together at a homeless camp off Main Street when he became violent Saturday.

She said Davis slapped her in the face and told her he was going to rape her, then pulled her into his tent and assaulted her. She was able to resist, and when Davis heard someone coming, he pulled the woman out of the tent and walked her to the road, where he choked her, she told police.

Davis said he would kill her if she called the police, then let her go, she told police.

Not long after that encounter, Davis found the woman again. She was sitting in a car with a friend on McCallie Avenue, according to Davis’ affidavit. The woman said Davis pulled her from the car and began to hit her.
