A twenty-two-year-old British backpacker was freed from her alleged captor during a routine traffic stop in Mitchell, Australia.
When the officer pulled her over, he noticed she was "visibly distressed" and spotted several bruises and scratches on her face and neck.
The officer searched the car and found a twenty-two-year-old Australian man hiding in the back.
Authorities said they had been in a relationship before he allegedly kept her captive for a couple of months.
The suspect has been charged with assault and rape.
