St. Paul Rape Supect Arrested
St. Paul police arrested a 19-year-old man in connection with a rape that happened earlier this week.
According to the Pioneer Press, George Allen Walker was arrested and booked at Ramsey County Jail on charges of first-degree sexual assault and a probation violation warrant at 8 pm. Saturday. The rape took place on Wednesday at around 4:50 p.m., on St. Paul's East Side near Jessamine and Payne Avenues. According to police, a man knocked on a 17-year-old's front door and forced his way into the house where he assaulted and raped the teenager. Walker's first court appearance will be on Tuesday.
The Star Tribune does not give the name of the suspect. However, they give a little more description of the area the assault took place. They report that the girl's home was on the 600 block of Jessamine Avenue. Both outlets report that the police released this information "because of the grave concerns of the residents of the East Side and all of St. Paul's citizens after this brazen attack."
