FALMOUTH, Mass. (AP) A Boston man has been charged with sexually assaulting an 18-year-old woman on a ferry traveling from Martha s Vineyard to mainland Massachusetts, according to state police.
Bruno Sanches Dejesus, 20, appeared in Falmouth District Court on Tuesday to face two counts of rape. A not guilty plea was entered on his behalf and bail was set at $25,000.
After the Steamship Authority ferry docked at the Woods Hole section of Falmouth on Monday evening, the woman called local police, according to a statement from state police.
The suspect left the dock as a passenger in a commercial box truck. A description of the truck was broadcast and a state police trooper located and stopped the vehicle on Route 28 in Falmouth.
