On December 14th, around 3:30 a.m., police say Rodriguez assaulted a 25-year-old woman on South Boulevard near the intersection of East Boulevard. The woman was able to escape, but she left her purse behind. Ramirez allegedly used a credit card that was in the victim’s purse to purchase gas.

According to the CMPD, Ramirez sexually assaulted a 42-year-old woman and took items from her residence near the intersection of East Bland Street and South Boulevard around 12:40 a.m. on December 15th.  Police say Ramirez fraudulently used credit cards stolen during the incident at a later time.

Both women were able to identify Ramirez’s white BMW and, on December 16th, officers were able to locate the vehicle and Ramirez, who was arrested.
