Officers say Robert Giles, 27, asked the victim to call her boyfriend so he could hear the assault. 
 
 Police say quick thinking by the victim of a frightening abduction and assault helped them catch her attacker in the act. 
 
 The attack happened early Monday in the back of an adult entertainment store. 
 
 Officers say Robert Giles, 27, asked the victim to call her boyfriend so he could hear the assault. 
 
 Instead of calling her boyfriend, she called 911. Police say the savvy 911 operator also kept his wits about him. 
 
 “It was quick thinking on his behalf. In fact, (it) might have saved her life,” Clayton County police Maj. Joe Woodall said. 
 
 Officers say Giles kidnapped the victim from Hapeville and brought her to the closed Starship Novelties and Gifts store on Tara Boulevard around 4 a.m. Monday intending to rape her. That’s when he allegedly asked her to call her boyfriend so he could listen to the assault. 
 
 The victim called 911 and told her attacker it was her boyfriend. The 911 operator played along. 
 
 “She explained to him what the perpetrator had told her; that he was wanting him to listen while she was being raped,” Woodall said. 
 
 The operator tried to talk the attacker out of the assault and sent police. Police quickly arrived and say they arrested Giles in the act. 
 
 “They were able to stop it right then and there and snatched him right from the car,” Woodall said. 
 
 Giles now faces rape, false imprisonment and obstruction charges. Hapeville police are preparing kidnapping charges against Giles. ||||| Just One More Thing...

 Deonte Smith, a senior 911 operator in Clayton County, says he was just doing his job and the victim deserves all the credit for keeping her wits about her while she was being attacked and sexually assaulted. 
 
 “I would like to meet you in person. I really want to. I’m thankful for your quick thinking,” Smith said of the victim. 
 
 He also says she got some help from above because if she had called a few seconds later he would have been on break. 
 
 ”Honestly I'd say divine intervention,” Smith said. “I was the only guy on the floor that night. The other guy we had had just left not too long before the call came in.” 
 
 The caller said she was being assaulted by Robert Timothy Giles. Officers say Giles kidnapped the victim and brought her to a novelty store parking lot on Tara Boulevard around 4 a.m. Monday. 
 
 Police say Giles forced the victim to call her boyfriend so he could listen in on the assault. 
 
 The victim instead called 911 and Smith pretended to be her boyfriend. 
 
 “(It was) the most extreme call of my career,” Smith said. 
 
 Police say Smith talked to Giles and tried to get him to stop the assault. Smith told Channel 2’s Tom Jones the call upset him. 
 
 “Very much so. I have a daughter, I have a sister and I have a mom. (It’s) difficult, it really is. I was really upset,” Smith said. 
 
 But Smith said he had to remain professional. He dispatched police and when they arrived, officers say Giles was still assaulting the victim. 
 
 A Clayton County judge denied bond for Giles Tuesday. 
 
 Giles shook his head in disagreement when the judge read details about the attack. 
 
 The 27-year-old faces rape, false imprisonment and obstruction charges.
– A Georgia woman was assaulted early Monday, and the alleged attacker told her to call her boyfriend to make him listen—but instead, the woman called 911. Deonte Smith, the dispatcher who answered, noticed that the woman was pretending to be talking to her boyfriend, so he played along. It was "the most extreme call of my career," Smith tells WSB-TV. "She explained to him what the perpetrator had told her; that he was wanting him to listen while she was being raped," a Clayton County police officer tells the station. Smith got her location and sent police while trying to talk the attacker out of assaulting the woman; police arrived while it was still going on. "It was quick thinking on his behalf. In fact, (it) might have saved her life," the officer says of Smith's actions, though Smith credits the woman's own quick thinking and says he was just doing his job. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution points out that Smith was the only male dispatcher working at the time. "Honestly, I'd say divine intervention," he says. Suspect Robert Giles, 27, faces charges of rape, false imprisonment, and obstruction. Kidnapping charges could also be forthcoming because police say Giles took the victim from Hapeville to a closed adult entertainment store to carry out the attack. (This 911 dispatcher ended up saving her own father.)
