A 27-year-old homeless man was arrested Monday after he allegedly fondled a female university student on South College Avenue, according to university police.
The victim was walking near the intersection of South College Avenue and Kent Way just before 4 p.m. Monday when the man, identified as Daniel C. Castillo, allegedly grabbed her and fondled her, said Capt. James Grimes of the university police.
"He put his arm around her and scared her, she screamed, and he ran off," Grimes said.
University and Newark police searched the area and found Castillo, who was identified by the victim at the scene, Grimes said. Last week, Castillo had been given a trespass warning by university police, meaning he could be arrested if seen on campus again.
Castillo, an illegal immigrant, was charged with two counts of unlawful sexual contact and trespassing. He was taken to Howard R. Young Correctional Facility in lieu of $6,000 bail.
