According to police, the woman took the trash out early Monday morning from her home and was approached by two men. The men then forced her into a car, where they blindfolded her, gagged her and bound her wrists.
Sgt. Jeff Mitchell said, "Between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m. Monday morning, she was taken from in front of her residence."
Police said the men drove the woman to an undisclosed wooded area, where they held her for 15 hours and sexually assaulted her at times. Investigators said the men eventually left the woman alone, allowing her to escape and return to her home.
Officers said the woman found by her family members lying in the front yard bound and gagged.
She was taken to the Atrium Medical Center in Middletown.
The name of the victim has not been released. Investigators said they are talking to witnesses and the victim to get more information about what happened.
