NORTH SALEM — A Brewster man was charged with the attempted rape of a woman he knew at an undisclosed location in town, state police said Wednesday.

Francisco Borja Guerra, 44, of 52 Marvin Ave.was charged about 9 p.m. Tuesday with attempted first-degree rape, a felony, police said.

The alleged incident took place Saturday. The victim was a 21-year-old woman who Guerra knew, police said. Police began investigating Monday.

Guerra was arraigned before Town Justice Ralph Mackin, who sent him to the Westchester County jail without bail. Once Guerra arrived at jail, a federal immigration detainer warrant was placed on him because he is suspected of being in the country illegally. His country of origin was not immediately available.
Guerra is due back in Town Court Monday.
