San Diego State Police Department arrested an SDSU student today in connection to an alleged sexual assault that occurred this weekend.
The sexual assault occurred at 5074 College Avenue, according to the police department.
The woman reported the sexual assault to SDSU police on Dec. 7. SDSUPD Capt. Mays said the assault occurred sometime between Dec. 6 and 7. The woman identified the suspect and detectives investigated the assault, leading to the arrest of Francisco Paiva Sousa. He is facing charges of oral copulation with force and false imprisonment with force.

According to a community safety alert, SDSU police did not issue a crime alert for the sexual assault because the suspect was known and police did not want to jeopardize his arrest.
