A Mexican man living in the U.S. illegally used his job as an Uber driver to target intoxicated young women and was charged Monday with raping, assaulting and robbing four victims, California prosecutors said.
Alfonso
Alarcon-Nunez drove women to their homes, assaulted them, and stole
property including cellphones, computers and jewelry, officials said. He
collected his fare payments through the smartphone app Venmo to
disguise his identity and his Uber records.
DNA
evidence helped lead detectives to Alarcon-Nunez, who was arrested at
his Santa Maria home last week, San Luis Obispo County District Attorney
Dan Dow said at a news conference.
The
alleged crimes occurred over four weeks starting in mid-December in San
Luis Obispo, a city of about 45,000 that is home to California
Polytechnic State University. Alarcon-Nunez's victims are between 19 and
22 and three were drunk at the time of the crimes, Dow said.
