28-year-old man has been arrested in Miami after the alleged sexual assault of a woman in a Walmart along Northwest 79th Street.

According to the arrest form, Bredan Harvey approached the woman from behind while she was shopping in the store and pulled up her dress to touch her back.

Police say that when she turned around to confront her aggressor, he pushed her to the ground, ripping off her clothes and trying to touch her below the waist.

The alleged assault occurred in the aisles of Walmart and was witnessed by at least two people who say they intervened to remove Harvey from the victim.

PITTSBURG — Police released audio and video depicting a man’s shooting by an officer last month at the end of an hours-long mental-health episode at a hotel.

Authorities identified the man as Ashton Porter, 45, of Alpharetta, Ga. Porter has been charged with five counts of assault upon a firefighter or police officer, one count of trespass or refusing to leave private property and one count of vandalism over $400, according to charging documents.

Police released a video Tuesday that used footage from multiple officers’ body-worn cameras. An accompanying statement acknowledged that the department’s 20-hour response meant that some officers’ cameras were not recording, due to drained batteries, as the incident ended.

The video shows various portions of the standoff, which began about 12:30 p.m. Feb. 23. Officers responded to the Hampton Inn Suites, 1201 California Ave., after dispatchers began receiving calls about sounds of yelling, smashed items and breaking window glass from a man on the inn’s fourth floor.

“We have a guest that is basically not opening his door and at the same time you can clearly hear that there’s glass that’s being broken and he’s also screaming and placing something in front of the door,” an employee told a dispatcher. The worker added that the guest was screaming for help and that family members were present but that police presence was needed.

An officer who soon arrived spoke with family members and learned that the man was having a mental-health issue and had barricaded himself inside the room with furniture and broken a room window.

After the man declined police requests through the room door to speak with them or exit the room, claiming that he was fine and “just needed time,” officers reached out to the department’s crisis-intervention team and the county’s mental-health evaluation team and mobile crisis-response teams for help.

Members of both teams joined other family members in speaking to the man, who continued to deny needing help and refusing to explain his status.

Around 9 p.m., after hearing the man say he wanted to “end it all” and learning the man had a knife, police used a truck with a boom arm extended up to the hotel’s fourth floor to place a plywood sheet over the room’s broken window. At the same time, members of the department’s tactical team arrived to assist officers.

Both county teams left the hotel shorty after midnight after the man’s continued refusal to come out. Remaining officers tried to talk to him through the door until around 6:40 a.m., when he managed to stick a knife through a damaged hole in the door toward a tactical-team officer.

“If at any point in time you want to listen to what I’ve been trying to tell you, we’re going to make sure you come out and everything’s safe and I can make you a lot more comfortable,” an officer told the man in part. “But the longer you don’t listen to me, the worse it’s going to get for you. I’ve been nothing but honest with you.”

“I know,” the man said. “But I don’t feel safe.” The officer answers: “The only safety you’ve got is listening to me.”

Soon after, officers began using rounds of chemical irritants and kept talking to try to get the man to come out of the room. Shortly after 8:10 a.m., he relented and came out, holding a butcher-style knife in his hand.

After two officers in the hallway struck the man with less-lethal sponge projectiles to no effect, he turned toward officers at one end of the hallway with the knife raised over his head. At that point, an officer used his service weapon to shoot the man, hitting him twice and knocking the knife to the floor.

Paramedics staged at the scene joined officers in providing medical care before taking him to a hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.

A nurse was left with three broken ribs and a broken clavicle after she was thrown down the stairs of a Seattle rail station in a brutal unprovoked attack.

Alexander Jay, 40, was caught on camera repeatedly throwing the victim and then kicking her during the vicious assault, say King County prosecutors.

Police say that the attack was unprovoked and that the 62-tear-old victim needed surgery to fix her broken clavicle.

As she got to her feet after the initial attack, security video shows the victim being grabbed again and thrown down another stretch of the concrete steps.

The suspect then allegedly tried to grab her and throw her for a third time, but the victim is seen clinging to a railing.

After kicking and punching the victim, the suspect then ran up the stairs and fled the scene.

“The male who assaulted her was in the same car on the light rail train with her, facing her,” a detective stated in the probable cause certificate.

“She was standing, and he was seated. They had no interaction or confrontation. He continued to pull his mask down while on the light rail, and she got a good look at his face. The cross (tattoo) on his face stood out to her, and she recognized him as the same male who later assaulted her.”

A security guard eventually came to the woman’s aid

The suspect was arrested by Seattle police the day after the attack and faces arraignment on second-degree assault on 24 March, according to KIRO7.

As of Monday he remains in prison on a $150,000 bail.

Court documents state that the suspect has criminal convictions in the state of Washington including burglary, theft, selling stolen property and several instances of domestic violence.

He also has prior convictions in California for theft, drug possession, auto theft and burglary.

Courts in Washington have issued more than 15 bench warrants for the suspect failing to attend hearings.

ORLANDO, Fla. - Orlando police have arrested a man they say stabbed an older female hotel worker multiple times earlier this month.

Cordarryl Glenn Demby, 35, is facing several charges including attempted felony murder stemming from the March 2 incident at the Best Western Inn Orlando on West Colonial Drive.

On Thursday, detectives provided details about the crime. They say Demby was at the hotel for around 20 minutes before attacking the woman, which was caught on camera.

Demby was reportedly released from the Orange County Jail on March 1. He was supposed to pick up his property which was close to the hotel.

Demby reportedly walked in and out of the hotel and asked the clerk to show him a room. In security video, the victim is seen behind the counter and Demby is walking around on the other side. He suddenly jumps over the counter and hits and stabs the woman. When she tries to get up, he hits her again. Demby then reportedly steals money and leaves, which was less than $200.

Authorities say Demby has a lengthy criminal history.

The victim is healing is now out of the hospital.

A man stabbed two employees at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City on Saturday, officials said. Police are still searching for the suspect, who was identified as a former member of the museum.

"This incident is still unfolding," Deputy Commissioner for Intelligence and Counterterrorism John Miller of the New York City Police Department said at a press conference Saturday evening. "We're at a very early stage in the investigation."

At around 4:15 p.m. local time, the man attempted to gain entrance to the museum by presenting his membership card, but was denied because his membership had expired due to two prior incidents involving disorderly conduct at the museum in recent days, Miller said.

The man then became upset and jumped over the museum's reception desk before stabbing two employees multiple times in the back, collar bone and the back of the neck.

The employees were transported to a local hospital within minutes of the attack, Miller said. They are both expected to be okay.

"This was a rapidly unfolding, spontaneous incident," Miller said.

The man involved in the incident is known to the NYPD. He was recorded on video leaving the museum following the stabbings, and authorities are still looking for him, according to Miller. He is described as a White male wearing a black jacket, a colorful shirt and a blue surgical mask.

Police released video of the incident on Sunday that appeared to show a man jump over the reception desk and stab employees as they attempted to escape. The NYPD said Sunday that it is searching for 60-year-old Gary Cabana in connection with the assault.

Videos published to social media by museum visitors showed crowds of people evacuating the museum.
