CLEARWATER, Fla. — Deputies arrested a man who they say sexually assaulted a teenager under Pier 60.
Timon Fonfara, 23, was arrested Saturday for the crime that happened in mid-February, according to a Pinellas County Sheriff's Office arrest report.
Deputies say Fonfara and the teen were under the pier when he became aggressive and raped the teen, who told him to stop.
The teen only had a vague knowledge of the attacker's identity, the arrest report reads. However, investigators say they found a positive DNA match in the Combined DNA Index System database that led to Fonfara's arrest.
