A San Juan resident will appear in court this morning, charged with sexually assaulting a security guard who was stationed at a church in South Trinidad.

The 40-year-old woman was dragged to an overgrown play park where the act was committed around 8.30 p.m. on Saturday, police said.

Police said the suspect visited his victim earlier in the day, pretending to be a new supervisor.

The man returned as the woman was leaving the compound. She was taken to a nearby park, where he pinned her to the ground and forced her to have sexual intercourse.

The incident was reported to the police. The 34-year-old man was arrested about an hour later. The woman was treated at the San Fernando General Hospital.
