May 27, 2008
 By Dispatch Staff

Police arrested a 12-year-old boy who asked a woman for sex then inappropriately touched her when she declined, police said.

The boy approached the 37-year-old woman in a restroom at Christmas Hill Park shortly before 1 p.m. today. He asked her for sexual intercourse and after she said no, the boy touched her buttocks, police said.

Officers located the preteen at the park. He was positively identified. The boy kicked a police officer while he was being taken into custody. The officer was not injured and the boy was arrested on suspicion of battery on a peace officer and sexual battery and taken to juvenile hall.
