Authorities in San Mateo County arrested a man Saturday suspected of groping women in Millbrae, the Sheriff's Office said Sunday.
Two women reported unwarranted physical contact by a man and described the same suspect.
On Aug. 13, a 28-year-old woman was walking on the Spur Trail near Millbrae Avenue when she was groped by an unknown male. She described him as being about 30 years old and 5 feet 7 inches tall. Last Tuesday, another woman, 38, reported walking in the 200 block of Poplar Avenue with her son when a man groped her from behind. The suspect fled when she yelled. She described the suspect as being between the ages of 20 and 30 and standing 5 feet 10 inches tall.
On Saturday, a community member in San Bruno reported to police that they saw a suspicious person in San Bruno City Park. Officers arrived and spotted a person matching the description of the Millbrae suspect, they said. Jaime Garcia Mogollan, 40, was arrested with evidence authorities allege ties him to the crimes. He was booked into the Maguire Correctional Facility on suspicion of felony sexual battery by restraint and his bail is set at $300,000. His next court appearance will be Monday.
The Sheriff's Office is concerned that there may be more alleged victims of Mogollan and urge witnesses or victims to contact them. Anyone who may have information helpful to this case should call Detective A. Baggetta at 363-4192 or email [email protected].
