Ohio police make arrest in campus groping attacks

CINCINNATI (AP) - Police at the University of Cincinnati say they hope the arrest of a 15-year-old boy will end the string of groping attacks on women in parking garages this month.

University Police Chief Michael Cureton says the teen is accused of groping three women Monday afternoon, and another on Sept. 12. He's also a suspect in a fifth reported attack.

The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that the teen was picked up Monday near 1 of the parking garages carrying a backpack filled with clothes that matched the description of the suspect in 1 of the attacks that day. Campus police had beefed up patrols since the first assaults.

The boy has been charged with four misdemeanor counts of sexual imposition.

None of the female students were injured in the attacks.
