OREM — Police arrested a 62-year-old man Tuesday night after he told police he had been assaulted at the Orem City Fitness Center.

The man told police he had been assaulted in the dry sauna, said Orem Police Lt. Doug Edwards.

After talking to the man in the sauna, the victim said an older man dropped his towel and hugged him, Edwards said. The man then grabbed the victim's hand and placed it on his genitals, according to an affidavit of probable cause filed in 4th District Court.

Police called the older man and asked him to come to the police station that evening for an interview. He was arrested for investigation of forcible sex abuse and booked into the Utah County Jail.
