Provo man arrested in rape
OREM — Police arrested a Provo man who they say raped a woman he met through Alcoholics Anonymous meetings.
The woman came to police Tuesday to report that she had been assaulted by a man she met a month earlier in her AA meetings, according to a police affidavit filed in 4th District Court.
The woman said the 29-year-old man came to her apartment while she was sleeping and woke her up and began to fondle her breasts, according to the affidavit.
She told him to stop and tried to push him away, but he held her down and kneeled on her already broken ankle while he sexually assaulted her, police said.
The man was contacted by police and agreed to come in for an interview, according to the affidavit. He allegedly admitted to having sex with the victim and even admitted that she told him to stop, but told police he didn't do anything wrong, according to the affidavit.
He was booked into the Utah County Jail for investigation of rape on $10,000 cash-only bail.
