“Obviously it’s a very sad and difficult situation for the victim because she was assaulted, but the good Samaritan did the right thing by going into the parking garage when she heard those screams and interrupting this before it became even worse,” Chester County First Assistant District Attorney Michael Noone was quoted by CBS3.
The incident occurred around 2:30 a.m. on Friday, April 1, 6ABC added. Police said Eaddy also took the victim’s cellphone and wallet before he fled.
Eaddy was identified by authorities through surveillance images captured at the parking garage, 6ABC stated. He remained in custody on Friday, unable to post a $100,000 bail.
