A man who allegedly kept his girlfriend locked in a wooden box for four months is on the run from the police.

James B. Ho Jr, 47, has gone missing after a woman reportedly ran out of his house in Mississippi and alerted a neighbour – telling them of her ordeal.

In a statement to police she said she was ‘routinely’ locked in a wooden box.

A police spokesperson said: ‘Upon responding to her residence, officers did observe a large wooden box consistent with what the female described.’

Now police are hunting Ho, who is a registered sex offender from an offence involving a 19-year-old woman in 1992.

He is described as white, 5ft 11, and weighs roughly 168lbs.
