A sex-assault suspect awaiting trial was arrested today at O'ahu Community Correctional Center on multiple sex-assault counts and first-degree child abuse unrelated to his other case.

The man, 24, of an Ala Ilima Street address, was arrested for prosecution via complaint at 11 a.m. on four counts of first-degree and two counts of third-degree sex assault in addition to child abuse stemming from a 2007 investigation.

On Jan. 24, 2007, the man was indicted by a grand jury for first- and third-degree sex assaults involving a child under the age of 14 dating back to 2003. He is being held at OCCC in lieu of $150,000 bail. His trial is scheduled for June.
