Okorie is accused of grabbing a woman at a public place & sexually
assaulting her. The incident took place over the weekend in a
residential neighbourhood.
According to police report, early Sunday morning, police came to the
house right, in Brookline and arrested Samuel Okorie. He was booked on
charges including molest, kidnapping and robbery. A 21 year old woman
identified Okorie as the man who sexually assaulted her. Police say
the victim ran up the street, crying for help. Neighbours said she was
screaming 'help me, help me'. When a neighbour approached her, she
said "he Molested me, he's coming to get me.".
Police report says Okorie grabbed the woman from behind near a gas
station on Saturday night, grabbed her cellphone and pushed her into
nearby bushes where he sexually assaulted her. Reports states that
Okorie then dragged the girl to his home where another intimate
assault took place.
Detectives said the victim attempted to escape many times but was
restrained by Okorie. Eventually she did manage to get away and ended
up at a neighbour's house down the street.
Neighbours described Okorie as quiet, friendly and were surprised he
was involved in something like this.
He has been arrested and is currently held at the Allegheny county
jail. His bail is set for $150,000. A hearing is scheduled for next
week.
