A Moreno Valley man was arrested Monday on suspicion of imprisoning and torturing two women inside his home, according to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department.

Deputies arrived and confronted two women walking away from the residence, and were told there had been no burglary, according to authorities. The caller refused to cooperate with law enforcement and fled the area.Further investigation indicated the two women had been locked in the residence against their will and tortured, authorities said. Emergency dispatchers had also received a call from the women asking for help while they were at the suspect’s home.
He remains in custody at the Robert Presley Detention Center in Riverside in lieu of $10,000 bail, according to jail records.
