Is there an electromagnetic equivalent of a black hole where charged particles would need to travel at the speed of light to escape the electric force exerted on it?

No. Charge does not cause the curvature of space-time the same way that mass or energy does. Therefore for any finite charge of the "electrostatic black hole" there is a finite energy that will let a charged particle with a non-zero mass get away from it.

Finite kinetic energy for a non-zero mass particle corresponds to a speed less than c.
