A Newnan man

has been indicted by a Fayette County grand jury for kidnapping and battery

stemming from the abduction of a woman from the Sleep Inn in Peachtree

City in June.

Dexter Smith,

28, of Newnan, was indicted for kidnapping and battery after police said

he took his ex-girlfriend from the parking lot of the Sleep Inn in Peachtree

City.

Smith was apprehended

after the incident in Meriwether County when a sheriff's deputy pulled

him over for driving erratically. It was later discovered that Smith's

vehicle left the road because he was striking the victim, police said.

Police said

the victim, who lives in Newnan, was planning to stay with relatives at

the Sleep Inn that evening.

a vehicle three times on Ga. Highway 74 near Crestwood Road in Tyrone

employee of the Burger King in Fayetteville, getting over $1,500 in cash.
