Sex Assault Arrest

San Diego police say they have solved two sexual assaults and possibly a string of "peeping tom" incidents that have terrified women in University City for the past 18 months.
Police arrested 39-year old Teddy Baek outside his Rancho Peñasquitos home on Torrey Gardens Place Wednesday morning and booked him on charges of sexual assault and attempted burglary.
They also searched his Kearny Mesa travel agency, Travel-Land, on Convoy Street.
Investigators say Baek was first arrested early Tuesday morning after a woman called police to report someone lurking outside her window in University City. Police say Baek closely resembled a description of the sex assault suspect, so they placed him under surveillance.
Forensic experts also tested Baek's DNA. They say he was arrested after experts determined he was a match with the person who attacked two women.
