This 30-year-old man accused of slapping two joggers' butts
Thursday morning was re-arrested over the weekend.
Lee Cast posted bail Friday, after Santa Cruz police arrested him
in relation to an alleged sexual assault on a Santa Cruz runner on Bay
Avenue. A second jogger making the same allegations about an encounter
later Thursday morning on Portola Drive did not come forward until after
Cast's release from jail, Santa Cruz police Lt. Bernie Escalante said.
At 9:50 a.m. on Saturday, Santa Cruz County sheriff's deputies
arrested Cast on Soquel Drive on a warrant for the second assault. He is
being held on suspicion of misdemeanor sexual battery. As of Monday
evening, Cast remained at the Santa Cruz County Jail in lieu of $7,500
bail with a court hearing scheduled for 8:15 a.m. on Wednesday. |
