A 29-year-old man is in jail after police say he broke into a Wichita home and sexually assaulted a woman. It happened just before 5:45 p.m. Saturday in the 1100 block of South Lulu Street.

Police say the victim walked into her home and found a man she did not know naked in her bedroom. He tackled her when she tried to get away and performed a sex act while holding her down. The woman was later able to escape and call police.

Officers arrived and set up a perimeter around the scene while they worked to communicate with the man who refused to leave the home. After a brief standoff, police were able to enter the home where they found the naked man and arrested him.

The suspect was booked into jail on charges of aggravated kidnapping, burglary and sexual battery.
