Carson City detectives arrest man for kidnapping, attempted sexual assault of a minor, and more

A 24-year-old Carson City man was arrested at Mills Park Monday evening after allegedly kidnapping a child and attempting to sexually assault them, among other crimes.

According to the report, Kahlil Deshawn Williams was arrested after deputies were dispatched to a convenience store on Hot Springs Road for a kidnapping.

Deputies arrived on scene and spoke with the aunt of a little girl who told deputies her niece had been taken by a man in a black car.

The girl receives lunches delivered to her by a school bus near the convenience store. The aunt had received a text at 10:34 a.m. from the bus stating they were on their way. The aunt told the girl to go wait for the lunches.

The girl left on her bicycle and returned at 11:05 a.m. on her bicycle with the lunches.

When she returned home, the girl told her aunt she had been taken by a man in black car and that the man had tried to take her pants down in the car. The girl said she screamed no and told him to take her home.

The man drove back to Hot Springs Road where he pushed her out of the car.

The girl described the man as brown skinned with black hair in braids with a dollar sign tattoo under his eye.

The girl said the car was black with a “hump” on the hood.

A detective reviewed surveillance footage from the store while another spoke with the little girl.

The girl told detectives that she was waiting for the school bus when a black car pulled up and stopped in front of her on the road. She stated the man asked her if she wanted a dollar, and she got into the back seat of the car.

She said the man then drove behind a building and back to the road. She told detectives she had parked her bike behind a dentist’s office and as the car drove behind the building, she tried to get out of the car but the man kept her from leaving. The car nudged her bike as it turned the corner behind the building and drove towards Hot Springs.

She said the car drove across Hot Springs in front of the convenience store and down an alley toward another road. She said the man drove her to a motel which she described as a tall two or three story white building with a lot of windows. At the motel she was still in the backseat. The man got out of the driver’s seat and into the back seat with her.

She said the man attempted to pull down her shorts, but she held onto them and screamed at him several times no, stop, and to take her home.

The man then got back into the driver’s seat and drove her back the way they had come.

She stated the man drove her back to Hot Springs Road, got out of the car, went to the backseat and pushed her out. He then got back into the car and drove away.

The little girl showed detectives where she had been taken, and detectives noted several surveillance cameras throughout the route.

Detectives were able to pull footage from the Nevada Department of Public Safety building among other businesses which showed the BMW the little girl described.

After a press release was issued at 4 p.m., less than an hour later dispatch advised a caller had reported a man that matched the description on the release along with the vehicle were at Mills Park.

Detectives went to Mills Park and quickly located the man. They found him walking away from the black BMW with two teenagers toward the skate park.

Detectives questioned the man, who identified himself as Williams, and told him he matched the description of a kidnapping suspect. He stated that it wasn’t him and that he had not left his house all day until he came to the park.

Williams said his brother and his girlfriend had been driving his car during the day. Detectives asked if his brother had a dollar sign tattoo under his eye and Williams stated he did not.

He denied having any contact with the little girl.

The little girl had stated that in the vehicle she had seen a “blue oil box” on the floor. When detectives looked through the windows of the vehicle, they saw a large blue square plastic container on the floorboard of the front passenger seat.

Due to the fact that the man matched the description the little girl gave and that the vehicle was the same as the vehicle seen on surveillance footage, he was taken into custody for kidnapping, attempted sexual assault, attempted lewdness with a minor under the age of 14 and false imprisonment.

Detectives went to William’s residence and spoke with his girlfriend who stated he had left the residence at 9 a.m. and did not return until after 11 a.m., and that she did not know where he had been.

Dispatch was also contacted by a citizen who reported giving the man three dollars outside a local department store at approximately 10:30 a.m.

Bail: $250,000
