More victims have come forward after police arrested a Morgan Hill man on suspicion of sexual assault this summer, according to authorities.
On July 19, San Jose Police officers responded to a report of a sexual assault that had occurred in San Jose, according to an MHPD Facebook post. The woman had been victimized by the suspect, Damou Evans, 46, multiple times in one evening.
San Jose Police Department’s Sexual Assault Unit investigated the incident and arrested Evans in August, according to police.
After SJPD released Evans’ arrest information, seven more female victims came forward to report the same suspect had assaulted them, authorities said.
“By these additional victims coming forward, the original complaint was amended to include a ‘multi-victim’ enhancement, potentially exposing the suspect to a ‘life’ sentence,” the MHPD Facebook post, dated Oct. 27, said.
