Omaha Man Charged with Raping Woman, Firing Crossbow at Her

omaha-policeOMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Omaha police have charged a man with raping a woman and threatening to kill her teenage son.

Police on Wednesday charged 38-year-old Ryan C. Lamp with several charges, including first-degree sexual assault, terroristic threats and use of a deadly weapon.

Officers accused Lamp of raping the woman, threatening her with a knife and firing a crossbow at her. The arrow just missed her head and lodged in a wall. Police allege Lamp also threated to kill the woman’s 16-year-old son if he called police.

Authorities say they found several small explosives in the home.

A preliminary hearing is set for Feb. 16. Court records don’t list information about an attorney.
