A Minnesota man allegedly held his 19-year-old girlfriend against her will, beat her and burned her by repeatedly dumping boiling hot water on her over the course of several days.

Jabari Junior, 22, of St. Paul, is facing two counts of felony kidnapping as well as first- and second-degree assault, according to Fox 9. He is being held in Ramsey County Jail.

Junior made his first court appearance on Friday, and he has been ordered not to contact the victim.

Police began investigating the kidnapping on Wednesday when the victim was brought to the hospital after she was found by Metro Transit officers at a bus shelter in the area of Wabasha Street South and Fillmore Avenue East in St. Paul, Fox 9 reported. The bus stop is near Junior’s apartment along Wabasha Street.

The apartment appeared clean, but police still found fresh hair clippings, pots matching what the victim had described as what Junior used to dump boiling water on her and gray sweatpants with dark red spots on the upper right thigh area.

Junior claimed when he was interviewed by police that the woman was a victim of sex trafficking and had been attacked by another man she had intercourse with.

He admitted to dumping water on her but claimed it was an accident while he was cooking. He initially denied any knowledge of the stabbing before eventually saying he accidentally stabbed the victim.

Junior also denied cutting the victim’s hair but admitted to cutting her hair a little bit when questioned about the clippings found in his apartment.
