26 year-old Sean Eusey is facing an indecent assault charge tonight. That's after he was taken to court for allegedly trying to fondle a 31 year-old woman from Sandhill Village on Friday.

According to the woman, at around 3:30 that morning, she was waiting for a friend to come pick her up at the Pallotti roundabout when she saw a van which was being driven by a man in his mid 20's which she didn't know.

Well, that should have been a warning sign, but the man asked her if she wanted a ride, which she accepted because it resembled a church van. According to the woman, driver took her round and round, making excuses, until he finally took her to an open lot in the city.

That's when, according to her, he jumped out and came to the passenger's side, and he attempted to fondle her chest. She struggled with him, and shouted for help, and during that time, she claims the man stole her cellular phone and her gold chain.

One of the residents of the neighborhood called the police, who arrived shortly after, and took her to safety.

Well, a few days later, police arrested and charged Eusey with aggravated assault of an indecent nature, and theft, and he was arraigned today before Magistrate Leslie Hamilton today who granted him bail of $1,000 after he cleared up court fines of over $1,200.

He was released on bail this evening, and he must return to court on September 6, 2013.
