Woman Accuses Man Of Assault, Leads OK Co. Deputies To Marijuana Grow

A Harrah man with a criminal rap sheet going back 26 years is now charged with attacking and kidnapping a woman. 

The Oklahoma County Sheriff’s Office said Eddie Sarratt, 45, attacked and then kidnapped a woman who came to his mobile home on July 31. 

Investigators say the woman was able to escape through a window, then called 911. 

Sheriff’s office spokesman Mark Opgrande said Sarratt denied hitting the woman, even though she had several bruises on her upper torso.

“When we were interviewing her a second time, she told a deputy they needed to go behind the house to a certain area and look on the other side of the property, there would be something interesting to us,” he said.  

Opgrande said deputies found nine growing marijuana plants and a garden hose, leading back to Sarratt’s mobile home. 

Sarratt’s been in and out of Oklahoma prisons since 1990, for drug dealing convictions. 

Choctaw police arrested Sarratt last Thursday after a 911 call led police to a Walmart parking lot. 

Sarratt had been arguing with a woman in the cab of a pickup truck. 

There were also three young children in the truck. 

Because police found a partially smoked marijuana joint on the floorboard of the truck, they took both Sarratt and the woman he was arguing with to jail. 

On August 11, Sarratt filed a criminal report of his own with the Oklahoma County Sheriff’s Office.  

He claimed his mobile home was broken into, while he was in jail after his July 31 arrest.
