todayJuly 18, 2017

A transient worker from Texas  told investigators he attacked a Waupun woman last Thanksgiving because he was lonely.  A sentencing hearing will be scheduled after a Fond du Lac jury last week found Juan Antonio Arriaga guilty of multiple charges including attempted kidnapping.  District Attorney Eric Toney says Arriaga approached the 22 year old woman from behind as she was walking home from a bar.  Toney says fortunately for the victim a police officer on routine patrol spotted the incident  and returned to the scene to investigate.  He says before the attack Arriaga was watching the victim walk by his apartment.  Toney says he believes a long prison sentence is warranted given the nature o f the crime.
