SAN JOSE – A 39-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of sexually assaulting two people in San Jose, police said.
The assaults were reported Jan. 7, San Jose police Sgt. Christian Camarillo said in a news release Monday.
Camarillo said one of the victims took a picture of the suspect and provided it to detectives, who in turn shared it with patrol officers. An officer recognized the suspect, and he was arrested the same day near South 4th and San Carlos streets.
