Accused of raping a woman in front of her infant
The suspect is accused of raping a woman in broad daylight, while she was walking with her 18-month-old baby in a stroller, and of sexually assaulting three women in their twenties.
Imprisoned on October 31 and then indicted, the 26-year-old man was able to be arrested by the police thanks to video surveillance images.
