Washington, DC, man commits 4 sexual assaults in 50-minute span: police

A man with no fixed address is under arrest in Washington, D.C,. after police say he committed four sexual assaults in just under one hour near two college campuses.

Police in Washington, D.C., arrested a man on Wednesday who they say committed four sexual assaults in the span of less than an hour.

Detectives from the Metropolitan Police Department's Sexual Assault Unit said in a press release that they arrested 26-year-old Elliot Johnson - a man who is presumably homeless after police said he has "no fixed address" - on Wednesday morning near the Georgetown University campus after he allegedly committed four sexual assaults.

According to the press release, Johnson "engaged in unwanted sexual contact" with a female at 9:11 a.m. in the 2400 block of Virginia Avenue, Northwest, which is near the George Washington University campus.

At approximately 9:30 a.m, Johnson is said to have committed the same crime in the 1300 block of 35th Street, Northwest, near the Georgetown University campus.
