Police have charged a man after a sexual assault in the northeast early Friday morning.

Investigators say a 27-year-old woman was given a ride home by a man she met at a night club.

But, the man did not take her home, instead driving her to the 400 block of 84th street NE where she was sexually assaulted and left on the side of the road.

Police say the man then fled in the vehicle.

37-year-old Fadi Gebara has been charged with sexual assault and forcible confinement and will make a court appearance Tuesday.
